Funny thing is, they’re a bunch of leftists. Schadenfreude.

That White Girl had better get down on her Knees and get busy with some Black “Activists” if she wants to save her Career.

When their original name means “pre-Civil War woman” I’m surprised they weren’t swallowed whole by the virtue signalling left a long time ago.

I wouldn’t know a Garth Brooks song if it fell out of the sky and hit me on the head.

They’re using the name because of a Black Lives Matter incident that, for them, is just a moment in time. If it mattered, it would have mattered to them before. It shouldn’t have taken George Floyd to die for them to realize that their name had a slave reference to it.

The blues singer Lady A is actually correct in saying this, which makes the virtue signaling of band Lady Antebellum all the more disappointing.

This is really taking the "woke" silliness to a whole new level. This is nothing but a lightweight "soft country" act whose string of hits would have been welcome on early 1980s adult contemporary radio. Air Supply with a twang. Nobody was ever accusing them of being insensitive just because they had "antebellum" in their band name.

They just figured they'd proactively "bend a knee" and show everybody how virtuous they are. Well this came back to bite them in the butt.

Never bend a knee to the rage mob. Never!

I propose they re-name to “The White Slaves”.

“Amtebellum” refers to an American historical era (1815-1861). One would think that this era, in which Marxism began, the words “socialism” and “Communism” were coined, and the Democratic Party formally adopted that name would be celebrated on the Left.

> Never ever kowtow to the left-wing mob—ever. They don’t want an apology. They want to destroy you. <

Very true. Unfortunately, here’s the lesson stupid “woke” folks will draw from the Lady Antebellum story: Lady Antebellum did not kowtow low enough. We must all learn to kowtow lower.

Posted this on another thread, but I vote for Lady Trailer Park.

“I’m guessing many Country Radio Stations will drop them from rotation.”

No, they won’t. The C&W industry is full of SJW’s too. Not one of the “God and Country” frauds were willing to perform at Trumps inauguration. Garth Brooks even reneged on his commitment, no surprise since he had no problem braking his vows to his wife.

Appeasement never works. My tagline has never been truer than during this madness.

I will be in the minority here on this, I think.

First- wouldn’t you do a simple search online if you’re changing your name to see if it’s in use?

Second, the first Lady A has used that name for over 20 years- she’s got record releases etc. with that name.

Third- virtue signaling isn’t endearing to anyone.

It seems to me the first Lady A was right to resist having her name taken - even if she’s being rude about it.

I have never met anyone who can properly spell "Antebellum", and no one who knows its real meaning.

It is uniformly thought of as "Antibellum" which is interpreted as being against war.

Like I said, if you want proof whites aren’t superior, look at idiots like Lady Cucks.
