Giles Terera said a London bar barred entry to his party of eight fellow actors because they were black. The bar, Ain’t Nothin’ But Blues Bar in Soho, allegedly allowed 10 white patrons to enter that were standing next to Terera’s group.“I just took a group of 8 Black actors who i’m directing in a play about American blues musicians to Aint Nothin But The Blues bar in soho. We were racially profiled and refused entry as 10 white punters were allowed in past us unchecked. WTF,” Terera tweeted.
The bar has denied that race played a part. In a Facebook statement, Ain’t Nothin’ But described the tweets as “unfair” and said the actor was using “the race card.” The actor Clarke Peters responded to Terera’s tweet. “Now those actors know what the blues are about!!!!! That establishment should experience some blues too.”
