There have been some ramblings around blogland that the new and improved Webster Hall has become racist! There is even a facebook group trying to boycott the place.
"Webster Hall is Racist. but worst of all were the Black bouncers explaining why and defending such blatant racism. We also overheard one of the white men at the entrance say "They're too dark..."

I also want to point out that these "minority" photos represent at least half IF NOT MORE of the photos posted by Nicky Digital from Webster Hall so it's hardly unfair sampling. Don't believe me? Take a look for yourself. Oh, and Nicky Digital is white.
