shade-y

racism by way of continuing to work on mostly or all-White teams; particularly relevant to creative & casting teams

"let me know if they're being shade-y at auditions for Beauty and the Beast... they better not use "but they were French" as an excuse to only call back the White girls!"

"Psh, they really said "sassy best friend from across the tracks" in the character breakdown. Shade-y."
