Along with the blatant police hatred and smear, there are nearly 20 occurrences of the “N-word” plus “ho” and “p-ssy” this is the garbage our president had performed in the WH for the 4th of July. Disgusting.
...on April 6, 1983, James Watt, Secretary of the Department of the Interior, which includes the NPS, summarily told the Washington Post that rock music would be banned from that year’s Fourth of July celebrations. In its place, Watt declared, “Now on, July Fourth will be a [traditional ceremony] for the family and for solid, clean American lives.” To headline the revamped concert, Watt landed Las Vegas performer Wayne Newton, accompanied by the U.S. Army Blues Band.
Many Americans viewed Watt’s ban as a rebuke of the Beach Boys, whose West Coast music evoked all-American pursuits—cars, surfing, and romance—and had charted more Top-40 hits than any other U.S. band. The Beach Boys had performed in D.C.’s Fourth of July concerts in 1980 and 1981, but the Interior Secretary characterized their fans who’d packed the Mall as “the wrong element.”
