Country Group Changes Name Over Slavery Association | Morning Joe | MSNBC
It’s called awareness, acceptance, accountability, and a desire to be unified. 💕 I feel so blessed to see these kinds of acts. 🙏🏼
@Thomas Armsworthy Jr it beats tiki torches and cars running over people.
While their at it, they should drop the lady. How offensive! 🤣🤣🤣
They are now “The No Names”
@Thomas Armsworthy Jr – No, you’d rather come to Youtube videos of MSNBC so that you can while away the hours trying to snag the attention that no-one gives you IRL.
Which is what you do.
Youre blessed they stole the name of a black woman?..
Antebellum meaning, occurring or existing before a particular war, especially the American Civil War.
“the conventions of the antebellum South”
Change is Good.
Destroy the CONfederate legacy ! They love their cons.
Hey Ho let’s go !! BLM
Defund police ✊🏿✊🏻✊🏽
Um you need a history lesson
honestly I didn’t know what ‘antebellum’ meant. I just thought it sounded pretty.
Hot pepper rubbed in my eye at 8 years old because I left my black friends sell newspapers with me and the racism has continued for the next 62 years I’ll be glad when it’s over
Omg. I am so sorry.
God Bless you
Yes,there have been plenty of “white” victims of “white” racism also.
Many were killed,for being N-lovers.
Hmm,hadn’t thought of that word in some time.
How many people signed trumps birthday card? LOL. There is no end to his narcissism :p
Never heard of that band but hey, good on them! To live means to learn and adapt. Those who do not adapt, will be steamrolled by change – just like the fairly shortlived (but not shortlived enough) trumpublican party is destined to be.
I like Fleetwood Mac. Their name came from a couple members of the band.
CA – ABBA is even ‘more gooder’! No, don’t correct my English, it’s by design and not by chance!
Fleetwood Mac drummer is a racist
My full respects to the true Americans that find it in their hearts and make a change for the better.
I know my white brothers and sisters are overwhelming good hearted people. It is only the rotten ones that gives America the wrong reputation.
I am a Mexican immigrate in this, my country for the 35 yrs–most my life.
I know my people here well. We are good people, he give a hand to our people–no matter what color, what race, no matter where we come from.
Together we will stand against the nasty, no good haters, including the one at the top!!
I can’t be any more prouder to be an American!!

Good on you, Lucio!
President Trump is trying to instigate a culture war!
A GENOCIDAL CIVIL WAR 2. CHECK OUT HIS EXTREMISTS AT CIVIL WAR 2 AT YOUTUBE. SEE IT IN THEIR OWN PSYCHOPATHIC WORDS.
@Glock Coley No real dems care what those DNC PSYCHOS SAY. FASCIST PIGS IDENTICAL TO RNC.
Glock Coley they are too stupid to read. They’re nothing but media muppets and DummyCrats. They can’t be saved.
He is behaving strangely. Is it me or is it getting worse , when he gets asked questions.
It’s just Trump, he’s no president.
Trump hold a rally in Tulsa on Juneteenth is a definite death sentence for his re-election. Go Joe💙
Nope! TRUMP 2020💪🏽🇱🇷
Alisha Monique Were done with racist pussygrabber.💙💙💙
@Alisha Monique: I hope whom ever photo/ Person you’re, impersonating finds you, and sues you, for impersonating and stealing their identity;
Alisha Monique 😂😂😂💙💙💙✋
Go Joe…..The guy who wrote the racist crime bills and said lock the SOBs up
The only flag that should have any relevance at a NASCAR event is the checkered flag.
@Glock Coley you are or you’re. Cooley learn English grammar.
Glock Coley it is not policy dude. Lets call it informed intelligent progress.
The green black , yellow , white and red ones are.impotant too. You could say the flags in Nascar work together better than us. 😁 Good point you made , @His Bubbliness .
@Glock Coley we are.all entitled to opinions but I disagree .
His Bubbliness. I agree with you and by the way I love your name😂
I love the group formerly known as “Lady Antebellum”- it gets an A for just thinking!
ITS DISGUSTING
@sam t why?
@sam t What’s disgusting?
Get rid of trump,gop,and his cult, . The country needs it.
They deliberatedly gave themselves that name and would have gone on with that if it were not for the times we are in right now.
So they steal the name of a black singer now
Trump is all in for the slavery and failure of the Confederacy.
Joe Biden 202o!
“Make America Breathe Again”.
– Glenn Kushner –
Yeah, they never realized before that Antebellum could have a racist connotation. Sure.
I love their music. Had no idea as a Black woman that “antebellum” was offensive. We’re all getting woke right now.
