A Missouri woman claims that she was kicked out of the St. Louis African Arts Festival because she is white. KMOV News 4 spoke to Susan Stone, who said that when she was dancing, as many there were doing, a festival worker targeted her because of her race. Stone recounted, “He takes me and says, ‘You can't be doing this here. This is an African American event. You can't be at this event. You're not black.’”

Perhaps she “self-identifies” as black. Who are they to judge?

it’s just too hard to discern her current race.

Personally, I am transiting to Romulan once the implant surgery is completed...

Uh Ha, Looking at the video I think she was kicked out because she can’t dance.

The festival worker probably just used race as an excuse. It wouldn’t have been PC to throw her out for being stone cold nuts.

If the conservative movement had any organization or power, then the organizers of this festival and the city would be protested and then sued for millions of dollars. Liberals have been doing that for decades. They gain power and wealth from it.

But alas, the only thing that will happen is there will be some columns written.

Ok? We already know they’re just a bunch of racist pigs. What’s the surprise? Oh, said woman voted for o’dummy and thought that by bending over backwards to kiss every black butt she saw, that would somehow make her acceptable to them? Lady, all they want is your vote and your money. Take your friendship somewhere else.

LOL!
And blacks dare complain about perceived racism? Here they openly practice it and not a damn thing will happen.

I think she is a Romulan who has somehow infiltrated the current government.

Don’t tell me you did the unforgivable and touted hard work and the family values as means of getting ahead? Or did you do something truly terrible and question the long term effects of large scale handout programs? What were you thinking?

If she was kicked out it was for being an obnoxious nut-job. So far as I know that’s not a protected class...yet.
