Is it time for the Dixie Chicks to rethink their name?
their appreciation of their homeland to “Dixie,” even if, according to legend, it’s the title of one of Abraham Lincoln’s favorite songs (one, incidentally, in which the author longs to be in “the land of cotton” because “old times there are not forgotten”).Regardless of its origin, for many Blacks, ‘Dixie’ conjures a time and a place of bondage.“Dixie,” however, didn’t bring down the Dixie Chicks. Judging by the response to Maines’ 2003 comment, many of the trio’s fans up to that point were the types of Southerners who still lived and would die for Dixie, or at least a Republican-centric vision of the good old U.S.

“Colston’s presence is a metaphor for racism”: Bristol artists reckon with the city’s painful past
the death of George Floyd, a black man killed in America by a white police officer, tore it down – his statue stood on Colston Avenue.“In some senses his presence [around the city] is a metaphor for how racism operates,” Bristol-based artist, musician and poet Solomon OB says; he was among the local voices who occupied Colston’s empty pedestal to speak on June 7. “Ever present, but often in the background.”The plaque below the now-empty pedestal dates back to 1895, and currently makes no mention of his role in the death and enslavement of many thousands of Black people.
