"headTitle": "A Shrimp That Can Kill With Sound Is Named After Pink Floyd | KQED",
"content": "\u003cp>Legend has it that the band \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/artists/15221280/pink-floyd\">Pink Floyd\u003c/a> once played so loudly at a show that the sheer volume had killed all the fish in a nearby pond.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now there’s a new species of shrimp, named after Pink Floyd, that can kill fish by making a loud noise. Synalpheus pinkfloydi rapidly opens then snaps closed its large claw, creating a sound that can reach up to 210 decibels — louder than a typical rock concert and loud enough to kill small fish nearby.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It turns out, however, that its new name has nothing to do with that urban myth about Pink Floyd’s volume. Dr. Sammy DeGrave, head of research at Oxford University Museum of Natural History, says the inspiration for the shrimp’s name was really the color of its claw: pink. “The reference is to the line, ‘By the way, which one of you is Pink?’ from the song ‘Have A Cigar’,” DeGrave told NPR when reached over the phone. “The story is when Pink Floyd first went to America, people thought one of the band members was actually named Pink. A reporter asked, ‘Which one of you is pink?” so that’s what stuck in our mind and that’s where [the name] came from.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>DeGrave said he’d never heard the story about the deathly loud Pink Floyd concert. “Yeah,” he says, “that doesn’t really sound possible.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He’s probably right. The story has endured over the years in no small part because of Nicholas Schaffner, who wrote the biography \u003cem>A Saucerful Of Secrets: The Pink Floyd Odyssey\u003c/em>. In describing a 1971 show at London’s Crystal Palace, Schaffner says, “The performance climaxed with the emergence of a fifty-foot inflatable octopus, shrouded in dry ice, from the little lake separating the audience from the stage, while fireworks exploded overhead. Unfortunately, the music’s volume was such that the real fish in the lake expired from the trauma.” The more likely cause of death, in retrospect, was the dry ice the band dumped in the water, and the underwater explosive flares used to inflate the Octopus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This isn’t the first time Dr. DeGrave and his colleagues have named crustaceans after their favorite bands — there’s another species of shrimp named Elephantis Jaggerai, after \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/artists/15403019/the-rolling-stones\">Rolling Stones\u003c/a> frontman Mick Jagger.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2017 NPR.

Synalpheus pinkfloydi rapidly opens then snaps closed its large claw, creating a sound that can reach up to 210 decibels — louder than a typical rock concert and loud enough to kill small fish nearby.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It turns out, however, that its new name has nothing to do with that urban myth about Pink Floyd’s volume. Dr. Sammy DeGrave, head of research at Oxford University Museum of Natural History, says the inspiration for the shrimp’s name was really the color of its claw: pink. “The reference is to the line, ‘By the way, which one of you is Pink?’ from the song ‘Have A Cigar’,” DeGrave told NPR when reached over the phone. “The story is when Pink Floyd first went to America, people thought one of the band members was actually named Pink. A reporter asked, ‘Which one of you is pink?” so that’s what stuck in our mind and that’s where [the name] came from.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>DeGrave said he’d never heard the story about the deathly loud Pink Floyd concert. “Yeah,” he says, “that doesn’t really sound possible.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He’s probably right. The story has endured over the years in no small part because of Nicholas Schaffner, who wrote the biography \u003cem>A Saucerful Of Secrets: The Pink Floyd Odyssey\u003c/em>. In describing a 1971 show at London’s Crystal Palace, Schaffner says, “The performance climaxed with the emergence of a fifty-foot inflatable octopus, shrouded in dry ice, from the little lake separating the audience from the stage, while fireworks exploded overhead. Unfortunately, the music’s volume was such that the real fish in the lake expired from the trauma.” The more likely cause of death, in retrospect, was the dry ice the band dumped in the water, and the underwater explosive flares used to inflate the Octopus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>The Bay Area is sending three of its best to the \u003ca href=\"https://www.rockhall.com/2017-induction-class\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on Friday, Apr. 7.\u003c/a> Joan Baez, Tupac Shakur, and the band Journey will be inducted in a ceremony in Brooklyn. It’s a trio from three very different corners of the rock universe.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Joan Baez: A folk singer with pop star reach \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Baez, who lives in Woodside, debuted at the Newport Folk Festival at 18 in 1959, around the time she earned the nickname “The Barefoot Madonna,” because she often performed without shoes. The 60s were a time when folk music was just as big as rock and roll, and far more political. So Baez, her mentor Pete Seeger, and her onetime boyfriend Bob Dylan (whose career she boosted), among others, could score pop hits. This was possible even as they protested the Vietnam War, or, as Baez did, lead hundreds of thousands in singing “We Shall Overcome” at the March on Washington in 1963.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7akuOFp-ET8\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Baez \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfchronicle.com/music/article/Joan-Baez-opens-up-on-retirement-Rock-Hall-11044107.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">told the San Francisco Chronicle\u003c/a> recently she’s issuing one last album, \u003cem>Fare Thee Well\u003c/em>, before retiring after 58 years of performing and recording.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Tupac Shakur: A contradictory character\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Politics is one point of similarity between Baez and Oakland’s Tupac Shakur. He was the son of Black Panther parents, and wrote smart lyrics about racial injustice and the perils of gangster life. Shakur was convicted on sexual assault charges, and he became a player in an infamous East coast-West coast rivalry that probably got him killed in a drive-by shooting in 1996, when he was just 25 years old.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You can hear some of the contradictions in Shakur’s life and work in a song like “Dear Mama,” added a few years ago to the National Recording Registry in the Library of Congress. Shakur wrote it for his mother Afeni Shakur, with lyrics that both extolled her and called her out for being a crackhead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>“For a woman it ain’t easy trying to raise a man\u003cbr>\nYou always was committed\u003cbr>\nA poor single mother on welfare, tell me how ya did it\u003cbr>\nThere’s no way I can pay you back\u003cbr>\nBut the plan is to show you that I understand\u003cbr>\nYou are appreciated.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mb1ZvUDvLDY\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Journey: A controversial choice?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In some ways, San Francisco’s Journey is the most controversial choice for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. People have strong feelings about a band that’s synonymous with bombastic arena rock. There’s an \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/groups/2205093643/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">“I Hate Journey”\u003c/a> Facebook page, where comments include, “A lot of their music came across as insincere corporate pap.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, the band has remained enormously popular for decades. Before co-founding Journey, lead guitarist Neil Schon was a member of Santana, and during Journey’s heyday in the 1970’s and 1980’s, the band wrote and recorded songs with easy-to-like lyrics and great musical hooks, like “Wheel in the Sky,” and “Don’t Stop Believin’,” a song that reached a new generation after it was featured on the TV show \u003cem>Glee\u003c/em> in 2009.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VcjzHMhBtf0\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Journey’s personnel has changed a lot over the years, with only Schon surviving from the band’s first gig in 1973. This is another cause of controversy regarding the band’s induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. \u003ca href=\"https://consequenceofsound.net/2017/03/sorry-journey-fans-steve-perry-will-skedaddle-before-the-bands-rock-and-roll-hall-of-fame-performance/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Former lead singer Steve Perry is scheduled to appear at the induction ceremony, but Schon has said Perry won’t sing with the band. \u003c/a>That honor will go to Arnel Pineda, who has been touring and recording with Journey since 2007.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Past Bay Area Hall of Famers\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.hbo.com/2017-rock-and-roll-hall-of-fame-induction-ceremony/about/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The induction ceremony will air on HBO\u003c/a>.

It’s a trio from three very different corners of the rock universe.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Joan Baez: A folk singer with pop star reach \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Baez, who lives in Woodside, debuted at the Newport Folk Festival at 18 in 1959, around the time she earned the nickname “The Barefoot Madonna,” because she often performed without shoes. The 60s were a time when folk music was just as big as rock and roll, and far more political. So Baez, her mentor Pete Seeger, and her onetime boyfriend Bob Dylan (whose career she boosted), among others, could score pop hits. This was possible even as they protested the Vietnam War, or, as Baez did, lead hundreds of thousands in singing “We Shall Overcome” at the March on Washington in 1963.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/7akuOFp-ET8'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/7akuOFp-ET8'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>Baez \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfchronicle.com/music/article/Joan-Baez-opens-up-on-retirement-Rock-Hall-11044107.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">told the San Francisco Chronicle\u003c/a> recently she’s issuing one last album, \u003cem>Fare Thee Well\u003c/em>, before retiring after 58 years of performing and recording.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

He was the son of Black Panther parents, and wrote smart lyrics about racial injustice and the perils of gangster life. Shakur was convicted on sexual assault charges, and he became a player in an infamous East coast-West coast rivalry that probably got him killed in a drive-by shooting in 1996, when he was just 25 years old.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You can hear some of the contradictions in Shakur’s life and work in a song like “Dear Mama,” added a few years ago to the National Recording Registry in the Library of Congress. Shakur wrote it for his mother Afeni Shakur, with lyrics that both extolled her and called her out for being a crackhead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>“For a woman it ain’t easy trying to raise a man\u003cbr>\nYou always was committed\u003cbr>\nA poor single mother on welfare, tell me how ya did it\u003cbr>\nThere’s no way I can pay you back\u003cbr>\nBut the plan is to show you that I understand\u003cbr>\nYou are appreciated.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mb1ZvUDvLDY\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Journey: A controversial choice?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In some ways, San Francisco’s Journey is the most controversial choice for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. People have strong feelings about a band that’s synonymous with bombastic arena rock. There’s an \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/groups/2205093643/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">“I Hate Journey”\u003c/a> Facebook page, where comments include, “A lot of their music came across as insincere corporate pap.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, the band has remained enormously popular for decades. Before co-founding Journey, lead guitarist Neil Schon was a member of Santana, and during Journey’s heyday in the 1970’s and 1980’s, the band wrote and recorded songs with easy-to-like lyrics and great musical hooks, like “Wheel in the Sky,” and “Don’t Stop Believin’,” a song that reached a new generation after it was featured on the TV show \u003cem>Glee\u003c/em> in 2009.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/VcjzHMhBtf0'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/VcjzHMhBtf0'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>Journey’s personnel has changed a lot over the years, with only Schon surviving from the band’s first gig in 1973. This is another cause of controversy regarding the band’s induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. \u003ca href=\"https://consequenceofsound.net/2017/03/sorry-journey-fans-steve-perry-will-skedaddle-before-the-bands-rock-and-roll-hall-of-fame-performance/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Former lead singer Steve Perry is scheduled to appear at the induction ceremony, but Schon has said Perry won’t sing with the band. \u003c/a>That honor will go to Arnel Pineda, who has been touring and recording with Journey since 2007.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Past Bay Area Hall of Famers\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.hbo.com/2017-rock-and-roll-hall-of-fame-induction-ceremony/about/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The induction ceremony will air on HBO\u003c/a>.

And, of course they sometimes turn to you for answers that the biggest, most veteran political scientists and leaders don’t have the answer for, like, “When are things going to change?” and “Do you think there’s hope?” Of course, we struggle in that. But it’s a great experience. I learned from them as much as they learned from me.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>You’re very funny in front of a camera. But you can also be serious. Who is the real Bassem Youssef?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I enjoy more intellectual conversations than just cracking jokes. I’m a much more serious person in real life. Maybe before the show, I was that kind of guy – someone who liked to crack jokes. But after the show happened, it was kind of like my persona was doing the show, and my person was exhausted by that persona. In real life, I’m much more mellow.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>Revolution for Dummies\u003c/em> reminds readers that you got involved in the Arab Spring protests, and started doing your show, somewhat reluctantly. You were a practicing doctor before all this.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I was only one example of millions of people who, after 30 years of living under a dictator, just thought it doesn’t matter to get involved because nothing will ever change. The revolution came and signified the change, and many people who had left Egypt came back. It changed all of us – I can’t say if it was for better or for worse.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>When Jon Stewart visited your show in Egypt, you joked with your audience – in Arabic – that Stewart was “the Bassem Youssef of America.” Do you get tired of being compared to Jon Stewart? \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We have this joke going on a lot between Jon and me. I’m honored to be mentioned in the same sentence as Jon Stewart. He’s an idol. I’ve watched him for 10 years. For me, it doesn’t get old. But it serves a practical purpose: It tells people who I am in four words: ‘Jon Stewart of Egypt.’ So people can automatically make a reference instead of trying to explain it to them the history of what I did, and what happened in Egypt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-12127869\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_-800x78.jpg\" alt=\"Q.Logo.Break\" width=\"800\" height=\"78\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_-400x39.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_-768x75.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Bassem Youssef \u003ca href=\"https://calperformances.org/performances/2016-17/speakers/bassem-youssef.php\">appears\u003c/a> on Tuesday, Apr. 4 at the Cal Performances event, “The Joke is Mightier than the Sword.”\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

And, of course they sometimes turn to you for answers that the biggest, most veteran political scientists and leaders don’t have the answer for, like, “When are things going to change?” and “Do you think there’s hope?” Of course, we struggle in that. But it’s a great experience. I learned from them as much as they learned from me.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>You’re very funny in front of a camera. But you can also be serious. Who is the real Bassem Youssef?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I enjoy more intellectual conversations than just cracking jokes. I’m a much more serious person in real life. Maybe before the show, I was that kind of guy – someone who liked to crack jokes. But after the show happened, it was kind of like my persona was doing the show, and my person was exhausted by that persona. In real life, I’m much more mellow.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>Revolution for Dummies\u003c/em> reminds readers that you got involved in the Arab Spring protests, and started doing your show, somewhat reluctantly. You were a practicing doctor before all this.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I was only one example of millions of people who, after 30 years of living under a dictator, just thought it doesn’t matter to get involved because nothing will ever change. The revolution came and signified the change, and many people who had left Egypt came back. It changed all of us – I can’t say if it was for better or for worse.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>When Jon Stewart visited your show in Egypt, you joked with your audience – in Arabic – that Stewart was “the Bassem Youssef of America.” Do you get tired of being compared to Jon Stewart? \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We have this joke going on a lot between Jon and me. I’m honored to be mentioned in the same sentence as Jon Stewart. He’s an idol. I’ve watched him for 10 years. For me, it doesn’t get old. But it serves a practical purpose: It tells people who I am in four words: ‘Jon Stewart of Egypt.’ So people can automatically make a reference instead of trying to explain it to them the history of what I did, and what happened in Egypt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-12127869\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_-800x78.jpg\" alt=\"Q.Logo.Break\" width=\"800\" height=\"78\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_-400x39.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_-768x75.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Bassem Youssef \u003ca href=\"https://calperformances.org/performances/2016-17/speakers/bassem-youssef.php\">appears\u003c/a> on Tuesday, Apr. 4 at the Cal Performances event, “The Joke is Mightier than the Sword.”\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"That was a cultural shock,\" Sweedan chuckled, describing his first few days in the U.S. \"The first time I was out was at night and it was Halloween.

And he was laughing, 'Don't have a first impression, wait for me to explain things to you.'\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Marwan eventually got more comfortable, thanks to weekly meetings with his mentor, where they would talk about all things American culture, from politics to history to holidays.

''For a while, people here [in Boise] carried their guns, and they were walking behind Muslims here, especially women wearing their scarves.'' But the Bay Area wasn't always kind either. ''In San Francisco, I got yelled at too. I was there right as feelings towards Iraq turned for the worse.''\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To my surprise, Marwan shrugged these memories off, smiled, and reminded me of two things: he had experienced worse in his similarly divided homeland, and despite his circumstances, he always aims to be a bridge of understanding.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I lived in conservative areas and liberal areas.

"title": "On Fashion Runways, Inclusion Is About More Than Color",
"headTitle": "KQED Pop | KQED Arts",
"content": "\u003cp>Designers are rolling out their spring lines and the runways are looking more diverse than ever. But the comparative abundance of models who are people of color didn't happen overnight.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There was the occasional — very occasional — model who wasn't white in the 50s and early 60s on runways. But African-American models put American couture on the map in 1973 when they walked the runway in France in what's become known as \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2015/03/19/393823017/how-a-1970s-fashion-faceoff-put-american-designers-in-the-spotlight\">The Battle of Versailles\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Almost instantly, black models were The Thing for a brief, halcyon period. But by the mid-80s, with a few glorious exceptions, the catwalks had regained a distinctly milky aspect.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many designers' casting directors — the people choose models for shows — would specify they wanted a \"certain look.\" And for a long time that look was very, very pale.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Things got so monochromatic that in 2013 Bethann Hardison, a former model and modeling agency owner, and supermodels Iman and Naomi Campbell formed an organization called Diversity Coalition, to insist on runways that included women of color. The Coalition even penned a manifesto addressed to the international fashion industry, saying the runways needed to be a lot more varied in hue, especially at the darker end of the spectrum.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The decision to use basically all-white models reveals a trait that is unbecoming to modern society,\" the authors wrote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then they named names.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That, said James Scully, is what gets people's attention. Scully, a model, casting director and activist, recently wrote \u003ca href=\"http://www.thefashionspot.com/runway-news/737855-james-scully-calls-out-balenciaga-and-lanvin-casting/\">an Instagram post\u003c/a> that claimed that the House of Lanvin had requested no women of color be included in the go-sees for casting its latest show.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lanvin insisted that was incorrect—but in the end, 6 women of color were in its lineup.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Earlier this month, The Fashion Spot, an online forum for fashion insiders, released its \u003ca href=\"http://www.thefashionspot.com/runway-news/740117-runway-diversity-report-fall-2017/\">Runway Diversity Report\u003c/a> for Fall 2017. The report surveyed 241 shows during the fall 2017 season. Almost 28 percent of the models in those shows, collectively, were people of color. The report looked at national and international runways and found the highest racial diversity across the four major participating cities (New York, London, Milan, and Paris) was in New York, where 31.5 percent of the models were people of color.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jennifer Davidson, editor in chief of The Fashion Spot, told \u003cem>The\u003c/em> \u003cem>New York Times\u003c/em> \"I personally don't think 31.5 is enough, but it's definitely an improvement.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's a tricky thing, casting. Directors have a vision for their lines — but what if that vision doesn't include a more inclusive palette? \"It's an aesthetic decision, it's not personal\" used to be a standard response from some designers. Marc Jacobs is one of the designers the Diversity Coalition called out in 2013 for being diversity-impoverished. He again found himself in the fashion world's crosshairs last year when he sent mostly white models down the runway in rainbow-colored yarn dreadlocks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jacobs was mystified at some of the outrage from people who charged him with cultural appropriation. Openly questioning why \u003ca href=\"https://www.theguardian.com/fashion/2016/sep/20/marc-jacobs-apologises-using-white-models-dreadlocks-cultural-\">white models wearing dreadlocks\u003c/a> was offensive, he suggested that his critics wouldn't \"criticize women of color for straightening their hair.\" Eventually Jacobs \u003ca href=\"http://www.usmagazine.com/stylish/news/marc-jacobs-apologizes-for-dreadlocks-comments-w440863\">apologized on Instagram\u003c/a> \"for the lack of sensitivity unintentionally expressed by my brevity.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And, tellingly, he was among the designers with one of the most diverse runway lineups for fall 2017 — 66 percent models of color (see photo above).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Fashion Spot has begun to tabulate not just racial diversity, but other kinds as well: designers that use older models, models who are transgender and plus-sized models. Of those groups, there has been more representation of plus-sized women than any other difference, but the door has been opened for other kinds of diversity.

But the comparative abundance of models who are people of color didn't happen overnight.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There was the occasional — very occasional — model who wasn't white in the 50s and early 60s on runways. But African-American models put American couture on the map in 1973 when they walked the runway in France in what's become known as \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2015/03/19/393823017/how-a-1970s-fashion-faceoff-put-american-designers-in-the-spotlight\">The Battle of Versailles\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Almost instantly, black models were The Thing for a brief, halcyon period. But by the mid-80s, with a few glorious exceptions, the catwalks had regained a distinctly milky aspect.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many designers' casting directors — the people choose models for shows — would specify they wanted a \"certain look.\" And for a long time that look was very, very pale.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Things got so monochromatic that in 2013 Bethann Hardison, a former model and modeling agency owner, and supermodels Iman and Naomi Campbell formed an organization called Diversity Coalition, to insist on runways that included women of color. The Coalition even penned a manifesto addressed to the international fashion industry, saying the runways needed to be a lot more varied in hue, especially at the darker end of the spectrum.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Scully, a model, casting director and activist, recently wrote \u003ca href=\"http://www.thefashionspot.com/runway-news/737855-james-scully-calls-out-balenciaga-and-lanvin-casting/\">an Instagram post\u003c/a> that claimed that the House of Lanvin had requested no women of color be included in the go-sees for casting its latest show.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lanvin insisted that was incorrect—but in the end, 6 women of color were in its lineup.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Earlier this month, The Fashion Spot, an online forum for fashion insiders, released its \u003ca href=\"http://www.thefashionspot.com/runway-news/740117-runway-diversity-report-fall-2017/\">Runway Diversity Report\u003c/a> for Fall 2017. The report surveyed 241 shows during the fall 2017 season. Almost 28 percent of the models in those shows, collectively, were people of color. The report looked at national and international runways and found the highest racial diversity across the four major participating cities (New York, London, Milan, and Paris) was in New York, where 31.5 percent of the models were people of color.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jennifer Davidson, editor in chief of The Fashion Spot, told \u003cem>The\u003c/em> \u003cem>New York Times\u003c/em> \"I personally don't think 31.5 is enough, but it's definitely an improvement.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's a tricky thing, casting. Directors have a vision for their lines — but what if that vision doesn't include a more inclusive palette? \"It's an aesthetic decision, it's not personal\" used to be a standard response from some designers. Marc Jacobs is one of the designers the Diversity Coalition called out in 2013 for being diversity-impoverished. He again found himself in the fashion world's crosshairs last year when he sent mostly white models down the runway in rainbow-colored yarn dreadlocks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jacobs was mystified at some of the outrage from people who charged him with cultural appropriation. Openly questioning why \u003ca href=\"https://www.theguardian.com/fashion/2016/sep/20/marc-jacobs-apologises-using-white-models-dreadlocks-cultural-\">white models wearing dreadlocks\u003c/a> was offensive, he suggested that his critics wouldn't \"criticize women of color for straightening their hair.\" Eventually Jacobs \u003ca href=\"http://www.usmagazine.com/stylish/news/marc-jacobs-apologizes-for-dreadlocks-comments-w440863\">apologized on Instagram\u003c/a> \"for the lack of sensitivity unintentionally expressed by my brevity.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And, tellingly, he was among the designers with one of the most diverse runway lineups for fall 2017 — 66 percent models of color (see photo above).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Fashion Spot has begun to tabulate not just racial diversity, but other kinds as well: designers that use older models, models who are transgender and plus-sized models. Of those groups, there has been more representation of plus-sized women than any other difference, but the door has been opened for other kinds of diversity. (Dolce & Gabbana dressed Italian nonnas (gramdmas) in its current campaign, and have for a few seasons. At J Crew, entire families replaced models to show off the retailer's wares.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These steps are not only good, but smart: the world, and fashion's consumer base, is getting more varied by the day.
