All the professional race mongers in Atlanta are in high dudgeon due to a “racist” memo from one of the Atlanta Hawks owners to the general manager. He wrote it two years ago but he just released it himself and apologized. Quite simply, the memo stated some ideas on how they could attract more white people to the games. Remember Diversity (All Hail Diversity!) is a oneway street and is simply repackaged affirmative action. If you don’t have enough blacks, that’s bad. If you don’t have enough whites, and you express that belief, you’re a racist!
Here are some of the things he complained about.
There are no white cheerleaders. That’s racist right there. But what about if the cheerleaders were all white and a black dude complained? That would be “truth to power”.
The after game concerts are only hip hop and gospel. He wanted the “music to be familiar to 40 year old white guy if that’s our season tix demo”. Meaning he wants more white people to come to the games. In Atlanta, the audience is majority (70%) black. Why more white people? See next paragraph.
Blacks don’t spend as much at concession stands. The revenue at hockey games with a primarily white audience was considerably larger (triple) than at basketball games. So wanting more white people in the stands to up concessions revenue is racist.
He does express a theory that the majority black crowd has scared away a lot of white people. That might not have been true two years ago when he wrote this memo, but it sure is true now. Even though the LSM propaganda arm of the Dimocrat Party is doing all it can to suppress the stories there have been many instances of blacks beating up whites and saying “That was for Trayvon.” Now, with the furor over the shooting of the gentle giant thug, Michael Brown in Ferguson the beatings are happening again but this time they’re saying, “This is for Michael Brown.” Yes, it is happening. We have a president and a party hell bent on stirring up racial animus in an attempt to get black people to the polls in November.
So, let’s summarize. Part owner of a business wants more whites to patronize his business and why (they spend more money) and details some things that might make that happen (a few white cheerleaders, after game concerts whites might like) and some reasons why they don’t (black crowds scare them off) and is branded a racist.
Switch the races in this memo and this guy would be an enlightened dude.
He does want to sell his share and the NBA is gonna make him.
Yannow, didja ever notice that blacks are over-represented in the NBA? What kind of Diversity (All Hail Diversity!) is that?
