Music Festival Charges White People DOUBLE, Rapper QUITS In Outrage
by Guest Sun Jul 07, 2019 4:45 pm
A music and arts festival in Detroit is charging fans different prices depending on their skin colour.
The controversial pricing plan has led to one artist pulling out of the event, saying she was "enraged" by the policy.
The organisers of the AfroFuture Fest, set for 3-4 August, are charging lower rates for tickets bought by "people of colour" than for "non-people of colour".
Early bird tickets for "POC" were $10 and $20 for "Non-POC".
There were also some "POC" tickets which were free but they have now sold out.
