Mandarins - Here We Go Again


Recommended Posts

Which is worse?  (A) Failing to get others to achieve a perfect horn snap, or (B) verbally abusing young people in your charge to such an extent that it breaks spirits, inflicts psychological damage, discourages people from joining, and brings shame to the organization?

If you have a Facebook page, I’d take a look at the comments on Kelley Ho’s page.  Not an isolated incident.  There seems to some very big issues in that organization.

The drum major was from 2017.  

Thanks that part I caught. I didn’t catch the details of other victims of the bullying. Did this all happen 2017 or was he doing this other years as well?

FYI: I can only read the reddit posts. Deactivated the FB account so SOL on seeing much.

Voice in my head just screaming “where’s your ####### priorities”.

But DCI is educational and for the good of the members right?

Mandarins thought portraying a lynching was a good show design idea at one point last year, right?

In retrospect...😳.  Seriously, I didn’t like their 18 or 19 shows. 

Thought I read 2017 show was bad mental health... not cool either...
