For the same damn reason black people got relegated to that back of the bus during him Crow. The same reason we can never play any other type outside of being beaten raped and killed. Because some white people will argue to hell and back that we belong at the bottom of every single list and will use any event as an excuse to heap hot coals on black women. They hate women in general and they hate Black people but are too chickenshit to own up to either one so they couch their reaction behind words like historical accuracy and competence .
