pornstar Shay Evans is not “passing”. Latin is NOT a race.
Alex Mayers provides commentary on a recent post from MikeSouth.com which is not only incredibly racist in nature but a form of bullying as well.
The post accuses pornstar Shay Evans of “passing” and denying that she’s Black by listing herself as “Latina” – however the reality is Shay Evans is multiracial. Furthermore “Latin” is NOT a race.
From Google.com
“Neither “Hispanic” nor “Latino” refers to a race, as a person of Latino/Hispanic ethnicity can be of any race. Like non-Latinos, a Latino can be of any race or combination of races: White/Caucasian, Black/African American, Asian, Native American, Native Hawaiian/Other Pacific Islander American, or two or more races.”
This particular situation illustrates how truly racist and anti-Black the American pornography industry is. At this stage Alex feels all Black performers might as well simply list themselves as “American” or “English”.
Did HIV positive John Stagliano really “molest” 2 pornstars on set?
According to the adult industry blog LukeFord.com John Stagliano (who has been diagnosed as HIV positive since 1997 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Stagliano ) had some form of sexual contact with 2 pornstars (Jenny Blighe and Ginger Banks) on an Evil Angel set.
Since this situation has happened, Jenny apparently wanted to come forward where as Ginger supposedly wanted to keep the situation quiet. Quite a bit of social media bullying against Ginger soon followed.
Porn News Today doesn’t feel either young woman should be bullied (especially considering how new to the industry they both are) – however telling the truth is always important.
