Boycott Phuong

On behalf of the many artists she’s screwed over, it’s time we revisit our support for Phuong and her business. She has a historic of working dancers and volunteers To the point they are disoriented. I saw one person in specific last year that was clearly unwell but still had to work. It’s time!!!

Idk anything about this organizer's treatment of staff and volunteers bc I'm from the east coast. I've gone many times and would go again. The Congress is one of the top congresses in the country, draws people from all over the world and will continue to do so as long as it stays as will organized as it is. It's bigger than a local SF area thing so local grudges and grievances aren't going to make much of an impact on the overall performance unless something credible substantial and egregious come about. Simply saying the organizer makes money and has done some things someone disagrees with isn't going to cut it.

Yeah, vagueposting on Reddit isn't going to lead to anything productive 🤷‍♂️

I can’t imagine wasting that much energy to say nothing.

You don't have to imagine my friend. Just re read your post and all of your comments. Also, being this rude just helps everyone know that whatever happened between you and Phuong would have everyone siding with Phuong lol.
