Oh, the irony.
Because we are trying to make diverse people feel welcome, we can’t express
opposition to the policies of those who would prefer that those diverse
people not be welcome.

Considering all of the efforts our dance community
makes to be welcoming
and inclusive, the title of this dance does just the opposite by
appearing unwelcoming and exclusive. Plus, as Mac said, non-profit
organizations risk losing their status by taking political stands.

You are aware that not-for-profits can not take any kind of political
stand or they can lose their standing. Just takes one dancer on the red
side to report you.
I'd check with your attorney before doing this.
