The Commission on Human Relations has ordered the owners and staff at 11 LGBTQ bars and clubs in Philadelphia’s Gayborhood to undergo training on the city’s anti-discrimination laws and implicit bias program.

The free training for the establishment’s employees and mangers comes after a report by the Commission highlighting racism at ICandy, Woody’s, and Tavern on Camac. Commission Executive Director Rue Landau says there was also evidence of other establishments being “problematic.”

Bars and clubs would apply prejudice policies that were exclusively used on people of color, such as dress codes and ID requirements. Many reports indicate employees ignoring people of color instead of serving them.

People of color in the LGBT community also say they they are carded at clubs and bars in the Gayborhood, while white patrons just walk in. They also report they wait longer for drinks and feel the dress code that bans athletic wear, “Timberland boots” and hoodies, is to “keep the blacks out.

Multiple incidents were reported, and the city finally took action after a video of the ICandy owner shouting a racial slur was released. The commission collected the testimony’s of 49 people and took a deeper look into polices like dress codes and nondiscrimination policies.

Woody’s does not have a dress code yet one testimony detailed bias based on one.

“On Saturday, September 17, 2016, I became another victim of covert racism in the Philadelphia Gayborhood. I tried to gain entrance to Woody’s and I was denied entry because I was wearing sweatpants and sneakers, and I was told that I was not in dress code according to the bouncer who was white. When I asked since when has there been a dress code, he responded by saying for a long time… bouncer told me that they’re actually being strict and refusing certain people because the owner who was white was actually In the building that night.”

One testimony highlighted the fact minorities’ were denied service.

The testimonies even go as far as to continue acts of inclusion based on unnecessary ridged I.D requirements.

“The racism that caused me to leave has brought me back here again tonight and I’m not going to repeat. When I first went to bars in the Gayborhood I had a passport with me, not because I was going abroad, because I needed two IDs to get into the bar and sometimes my student ID and my driver’s licenses wasn’t enough.”

Along with the training, the report recommends clear policies and a path for employees of color to advance within the companies. [LGBTQ]
