Lady Antebellum Change Name to Lady A Due to Slavery Reference
Country group Lady Antebellum announced that they have changed their name to Lady A. The group decided to do this in order to get rid of the antebellum term, which has been associated with slavery and the pre-Civil War South. Lady A is a nickname that their fans gave them years ago. Lady A arrived at the decision after “personal reflection, band discussion, prayer and many honest conversations with some of our closest black friends and colleagues.” The Grammy-winning group announced the reason for the change in a lengthy post on Twitter. When we set out together almost 14 years ago, we named our band after the Southern “antebellum” style home where we took our first photos. As musicians, it reminded us all of the music born in the South that influenced us… Southern rock, blues, R...

More cities will follow suit. This, along with the swill, promulgated from the top that public mask-wearing is PC weakness, suggests encounters with the aggressively unmasked increase as we all venture back into pub...
