Discrimination against non-black dancers?
Sunday, July 23, 2023 4:29 AM
A latina dancer recently told me she had tried to audition at a club that seems to only have black dancers. She said they straight up told her that she was "too light". I had always thought non-black dancers avoided certain clubs because they didn't feel safe, or felt the money wasn't the best at those clubs. It's seems pretty clear that clubs that target the higher-income white collar PL demographic generally tightly limit the number of black dancers. So I could see it that black dancers might have a "stay out of my lane" tude towards non-black dancers at clubs with predominantly black dancers. But I'd never considered that club management might only want to hire black dancers.
