Last week, a petition began circulating on social media calling for Portland, Ore., rock band Black Pussy to change its name, or face a boycott of all the venues that book the band.

As of today, the petition has garnered more than 360 signatures. Outraged posts accusing the band of racism and sexism have also appeared on Twitter and Facebook. One San Francisco event listing suggested people call and email the local venue Bottom of The Hill to ask them to cancel the band’s Mar. 5 show.

In exclusive interviews with the Daily Dot, black feminists in Portland; Oakland, Calif.; and Raleigh, N.C., said they were deeply offended not only by the name, but by the band’s reaction to their concerns.

Negative publicity is better than no publicity. FEMEN bitches working for the white man once more :)

They don't really " get" rock and roll, do they?

[Herr Abubu]

Leftists are a truly worthless bunch.

Is their name suppose to refer to a black cat?

I saw them in concert last year when they were on tour with Asian Dick and White Asshole.

Unfortunate distribution of roles. Was probably a dissapointing night for 2 of them.
