White concert-goers charged a higher price for tickets

Rapper Tiny Jag pulls out of Detroit music fest after learning white people pay a higher ticket price



Detroit-based rapper Tiny Jag pulled out of a Detroit, MI music festival this week after she learned that white concert-goers would be charged a higher price than people of color.

Jag, also known as Jillian Graham, told the Detroit Metro Times that she found out about AfroFuture Fest's pay model when a white friend reached out to her and sent her a screenshot via Instagram that outlined the pay difference. The early bird POC ("people of color") ticket was $10 while the early bird "non-POC" ticket cost $20.

Utterly amazing and I give that singer a proverbial tip of the cap for pulling out. What do you think would happen if I charged "People of Color" more for magazine subscriptions and/or T-shirts and made up some bullshit excuse why?

White people as a group would end up paying more anyway as a result of getting robbed while at the show.

You’ve got to give credit where it’s due
Well Done Tiny Jugs
That’s a very decent young lady I hope she influences
Many others with her actions.

If any "non POC" (Piece of Crap?) choose to go to an "Afrofuture" event, whatever that is, they should charge these fools as much as they can.
