Not hiring

Atlanta suburb
Now there may be some clubs that have standards for appearance, etc. I know of one club that will not hire any more black dancers. They are racial profiling in an attempt to stop drug trafficking.
Got something to say?

Seeing as how the US is made up of 13.1% black people, I would say, in my experience they are over populated in the US market anyway.
Asian at 5%. Damn, I'm barking up the wrong tree. NOT!

In reading about several of these suits I noticed that its the same lawyer representing the performers.
I guess if someone wanted to cause trouble or get a club to tone down the deafening music, there is a way. I don't want the music to be able to drown out a jet engine but I also don't want it so quiet the tv in my mother's house is a lot louder. 85 decibels is the guideline for noise limits. About the level of normal conversation I believe.
As for the club that won't hire more black dancers, I can see how that happens. If you run a club that tries to appeal to a general audience, as opposed to some of these "Black" clubs, you don't want to hire too many of one type in a club. I can also see why the owner would claim to do so as a move to prevent drug trafficking. I had a decent chat with the club owner at one of my regular clubs and he said he wouldn't mind hiring more black dancers, but too many of them have "agents" and he refuses to deal with "agents", which I assume means pimps. And we do know many pimps are also into drug dealing, amongst other things.
