I'm assuming the club is smart enough to know not to make public racist statements but not swift enough to think that "change the complexion" has a different meaning when referencing minorities at a white club. Misspeaking is a common error that people of all races make when they aren't thinking on their toes. Not to be confused with WHY the club felt these kids would change the complexion of the club.
