Agreed!

So what did they say they are changing?

I bet they start with the name first!

Name change and will have more diverse activities, interpret how you want

Correct me if im wrong but "diverse activites" seems racist as well. What I get from that is this particular race will wanna do "this" and that particular race will wanna do "that" .so maybe not so much as racist as "stereotypical" maybe?

Reverse racism at its finest. All I can say without a ban

I could get in so much trouble right now

Just got off the phone with my cousin, he is putting on the arm wrestling tournament at contraband days...He said he has a meeting with the board over the festival on monday and will let me know what all the real details are...He is thinking that it is not going to be as bad as you all are thinking.

We can only hope. Thanks for the info.

He doesnt take kindly to all of that racist protest crap so he said he will be speaking his mind at the upcoming meeting....But like I just told him his voice can only be heard so far when the officials may have people threatening to sue or whatever..

One for us
 

Wanted to change my pic to protest but this will have to do

This protest reminds me of a story.... A Democrat camapign rally had thousands upon thousands of supporters while the Republicans rally had a mere 100 people. When the Republican candidate was asked where were all of his supporters, he simply said, "At work."


Those "Democrats" are kinda like Mondays... Nobody really likes them, we just tolerate them.

There is now a facebook page dedicated to saving Contraband days.

Keep Contraband Days Intact is the page name

this...

Lets see Baton Rouge had one of the best school districts in the state then NAACP sued for better schools. They won their case. Now school district is in horrible shape.

North Baton Rouge use to be a growing community when I was coming up.
Now all you see is empty buildings where businesses moved away.

Now they want to make changes to contraband days.
This was a quote taken from KPLCTV article
"We are welcoming all input from the residents of Southwest Louisiana we want to hear people's concerns, we want this to be one of the greatest festivals in the state of Louisiana," representative of Contraband Days Dean Day said.

Looking at past records of people making changes to satisfy other groups of people in this state & country do you think it will turn into one of the greatest festivals in the State?
