XTC Cabaret performer Genea Sky became an unlikely emblem for labor rights when she subsequently started crowdfunding for her health care
Sky’s fall in the video is an extreme example of something that regularly happens in clubs across the country, says Makayla Montoya, a reproductive justice organizer and co-chair of SWOP San Antonio. “Injuries are extremely common, especially falls on and off the stage, since we are basically wearing stilts and are four feet above the ground anyways,” she tells. Moreover, when dancers are injured, there is often an expectation that they will continue to perform.
“Clubs in Texas never pay for medical care or time off, since we are contractors and not employees,” says Montoya. “The long term damage that does on our bodies since we are working through injuries is insane.”with TMZ, CEO Eric Langan, the head of RCI Hospitality Holdings, which owns XTC Cabaret, said they planned to provide Sky with financial assistance, which Sky confirmed to “I’m fortunate enough that my club is actually helping me, which is not the case most of the time,” she says.
