Nightclub Forced to Cancel Event Based on Race Or Was it Just Good Business??


I recieved a message in my inbox yesterday which told me to go and read a friend facebook status. His status stated, "Public Service Announcement: We have been in meetings with SLeek & Lumiere Casino for 3hrs fighting for Friday Night. So until further notice the event will be canceled... We would like to thank everyone for supporting "Soul Stylz" new location to be announced soon...if u have any questions feel free to call 314.497.3861"

there was 37 comments posted to this status and the more i read the more angry i became... here are some of the comments;
