Lady Antebellum Vexes Me
The Nashville country band Lady Antebellum dropped their name, fearing some hardcore Liberals might mistake them as advocates for slavery. In point of fact, “antebellum” has little to do with slavery but is instead a historical term meaning “before the war,” and specifically applying to the Civil War.
Our story doesn’t end there, however. Lady Antebellum rechristened themselves as Lady A, and now they are suing a black blues singer who has been using the name Lady A for quite some time. In other words, it doesn’t matter what era they come from or what era they want to represent. Lady Antebellum are a bunch of weasels and douchebags! More from Magog of Morskar.
