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.
"I was immediately enraged just because I am biracial," Graham told the Metro Times. "I have family members that would have, under those circumstances, been subjected to something that I would not ever want them to be in ... especially not because of anything that I have going on."

Liberals always become what the pretend to hate.
You couldn’t pay me to go to a hip hop “ concert”.
Thats cool.
BTW, were all people of color really... even albinos
Ya’ll white peeples need to pony up and gimme dem reparations and s—t! Gotta represent in this muthaf-—a!
I'm probably 1/256 Native American.
That's more than Fauxahontas can say.
Thank you, Tiny Jag!
It’s all about equality, right?
You’re a voice for equality, Tiny Jag.
When buses are used for transport, the whites know to sit at the back and keep mouths shut.
Yup. But she is 100% FOS
Using the affirmative action bake sale pricing model I see.
If it was the other way, there’d be hundreds of federal lawsuits filed, with thousands of ‘victims.’
But it’s okay, they’re doing it for ‘equality’
My thinking is she is doing this to increase her profile, but just a thought. Nice tattoo. Was she in the navy?
Violation of federal law? Clearly racial discrimination.
Not that anyone at the DOJ has the guts to do anything about it.
Our so called “post racial” president saddled this country with quite a legacy of hate. He primed this country for violence. There will be much blood on his hands.
“I’m biracial!”
No problem.
That’ll be $15 please.
That’s a civil rights violation. Some lawyer needs to file a class action.
Would 1/2 white people like Obama be charged $15?
Reparations for whitey!
Since Barack Obama is half white AND an evil rich guy, he gotta pay his fair share— $20.
Meh. If she says she is offended by the racial discrimination, I am inclined to believe her. To the extent that she gets any publicity from this, it is not going to score her points with 95% of those who listen to rap.
