The decision to change course came after threats and harassment, said Adrienne Ayers, who goes by Numi and is the founder and co-director of Afrofuture Youth. She said that after right-wing websites highlighted the pricing, people called and harassed the owner of the venue, and sent messages to her co-directors family.

Yep, it's the fault of right wing websites, such as various subreddits and the Twitter feed of one of the musicians who pulled out because of this, for bringing their racially discriminatory pricing model to the public's attention. It's not the fault of the organizers for trying to charge separate prices based on race.

They were literally threatened by racists
