On tonight’s broadcast – Alex reminds her viewers that the Covid-19 pandemic is
far from over and that continuing to practice good hygiene and wearing a mask
is very important.
In addition Alex shares some thoughts on how many of today’s older politicians
embody and project more racist ideals than she’s comfortable with, which is why
she’d prefer to see Presidential election ticket with younger candidates.
Also Alex Mayers explains how “tokenism” is an issue that many African-Americans
contend with and she relates the situation to Omarosa Manigault Newman’s experience
with Donald Trump.
Alex concludes the podcast with a bit of history from Omarosa’s book in regards
to the personal beef between Donald Trump and Barack Obama – and how that beef
may have led to Trump’s decision to run for President.
Thoughts in regards to how many multiracial individuals electing to label themselves “Hispanic”, “Multiracial” or “other” opposed to “Black” may be leading to the future of “Hispanic” voting power replacing that of “Black” voting power (that Candace Owens speaks of) becoming a reality…
In addition, a few elements to consider in regards to Black Lives Matter and taking accountability for who you are (and what you say) on social media (and in life).
From Alexandra Mayers’ perspective, June 10th’s Xbiz Town Hall in regards to racism in the American pornography revealed that today’s active adult actors and actresses of color are not only complicit, but are DEPENDENT upon the industry’s racism (and racist practices) to continue working and avoid contending with competitors entering (and being accepted within) their industry.
From this day forth, Alexandra Mayers will continue to document perceived racism in the adult entertainment industry, but will no longer complain about it on behalf of today’s talent (who she now knows is just fine with the pornography industry remaining exactly as it is).
Notes and observations from the online meeting can be found here:
Alexandra Mayers (founder, owner and host of the PNTLIVE network – also formerly known as adult actress Monica Foster) shares a supresed interview conducted by retired adult actress Melissa Hill – featuring veteran Black adult actors Mr. Marcus and Sean Michaels – which revolves around an instance of extreme racism and bigotry each experienced and endured at the hands of AVN media network’s staff at AVN media network events (the 2017 AVN media network nomination party and the 2018 AVN media network awards ceremony).
Since this interview was conducted Melissa Hill was asked to leave the radio platform she hosted her show through (possibly in part due to this interview) and felt pressured to resign from the APAG union. In addition, at the time of the incidents related in this interview Sean Michaels was President of the APAG union – but after the incidents resigned from his position.
Earlier this week the AVN media network released a press release stating that they support the Black Lives Matter (#BlackLivesMatter) movement, but from Alexandra Mayers perspective the statement is disingenuous.
The pornstar who appears to be behind the instances of racism Sean Michaels and Mr. Marcus experiences, Tasha Reign, today appears to be attempting to claim to support #BlackLivesMatter simply in effort to gain social acceptance and increase her fan base.
Considering AVN employee Peter Warren’s public communication and relationships with white supremacists such as Sean Tompkins aka TRPWL and the operators of XXXstarPR – Alexandra Mayers questions why the AVN media network (owned by Tony Rios) continues working with Warren (if they do indeed support Black Lives Matter).
There has been a severe racism problem in the adult entertainment industry for many years, but Black Performers DO have a voice – several voices in fact – should they choose to acknowledge those voices and listen to those voices rather than ignore those voices in effort to gain the acceptance of their white privilege enabled (and often racist) peers.
Avn (adult video news media network) recently released a press release stating they support #BlackLivesMatter – but considering the media outlet’s relationships with white supremacists and consistent history of engaging in anti-Black racist activity their press release in regards to The Black Lives Matter movement is not legitimate or sincere.
The above clip is from an interview conducted by adult actress and podcast host Melissa Hill with adult actor Sean Michaels in regards to the racist treatment he endured at the hands of multiple AVN employees at an AVN event.
In part 4 of this comprehensive interview with adult actress and adult performer advocate Lasha Lane, Lasha and Alexandra discuss the adversity women in the adult entertainment industry face when they attempt to speak out about issues revolving around elements such as inequality, racism, discrimination and/or abuse. Though Alexandra & Lasha May not agree on everything – they both definitely agree that everyone deserves the right to have their perspective heard.
In part 3 of this comprehensive interview with adult actress and adult performer advocate Lasha Lane, Lasha and Alexandra discuss the future of potential educational resources for performers in the adult entertainment industry – along with some other situations currently playing out within the political ranks of the PORNOGRAPHY industry – both of the positive and negative.
Lasha Lane shares insight around a recent incident involving the creation of an educational program intended for adult p performers which involved the Apag union, the FSC, Alana Evans & Lotus Lain.
In addition, Alexandra and Lasha discuss the impact the Coronavirus pandemic has had on the industry, and how the pandemic’s aftermath may shift the power structure of the industry.
Lasha also touches on Mark Schechter of atmla’s discriminatory practices in regards to who he’s currently willing to represent (apparently he’s currently only seeking to recruit teenagers into the adult industry – youngsters between the ages of 18 and 22).
