New Bedford, MA asked in Contracts and Consumer Law for Massachusetts

Q: i was denied access to a gym as someone guest because i owe a account there even though i have been there plenty times

it does not say in the contract that a platinum members guest can not have access to the gyn if a previous account is owed. i also was just there 2 days ago and had no issue, but i feel like because im colored and have tattoos they singled me out. they denied me access to the gym even though i had a valid photo id and was going in with the person who has the platium membership, is this not discrimination?
