Perhaps you would like systemic racism to blow over? Whatever, it doesn't matter what you think, it WON'T and this incredible open letter is a start. It is signed by the best and brightest BIPOCin the theater community.So, nah, not 20 randoms on socials anymore. Deal with it.

Dear White American Theater

Wow.

It's part and parcel of the same phenomenon.

Why “BIPOC” instead of “PoC?”

The term BIPOC stands for 'Black, Indigenous, People of Color,' it is meant to unite all people of color in the work for liberation while intentionally acknowledging that not all people of color face the same levels of injustice.

My comment was in reference to the Twitter uproar over the 2016 campaign donations.

I’ll say, I don’t believe this! You’re complaining abort Karen Olivo’s and Eden’s direct responses today, and how the people complaining over this will “blow over”, but now it’s about 2016? Your cards are showing! Nice try though!

Mike Barrett, I don't understand your comment, but...

My point to clarify again, as we seem to have lost the plot, is that many Broadway theatre-goers won't care (or be aware of) what Eden or Karen have to say about donations that were made in 2016 to the Trump campaign. That doesn't mean they shouldn't care. But also, you have to realize there are many Republicans and Trump supporters that make up the Broadway audience (not to mention those who work on Broadway) who would support such donations.

I also think that there is an important fact you need to keep in mind. And, it pains me to say this because I'd like to not think it to be true but I am sure it is. There are producers who can produce a good upbeat show with a positive message, who, themselves are Republicans. The reason is that, although they may not agree with a show's message, they have a keen eye and know that it would sell. I think that something like that is part of the ongoing race issues faced in theatre today

On the contrary, I don't think you had the plot to begin with. This has nothing to do with audiences; it is about the industry.

^Where's the money coming from?

This thread has nothing to do with the audiences on Broadway. Nothing. Zero. It has to do with the people who run the theaters, the theater owners and the actors who chose to work there.

How many more people need to tell you that for you to get it?

No one is discussing the money from shows other than you, this is why I found your comment to be BS. Its about the theatre owners, not audiences and who comes and goes to a show. Legit has nothing to do with this. You said no one is clamoring for Eden Espinosa to be in a show since she hasn't been on Broadway since 2008, that comment had nothing to do with the audiences and all to do with the producers, since her comment was stating she has no interest in performing in a Nederlander owned theatre. You're lost on this one.

Audiences were never going to buy tickets for either of these performers anyways, since they are not A-listers or very well known outside of this community. You seem defensive and again, the cards are showing whether you understand it or not, which is a different issue in itself.
