She also finds issue with the fact that the project is seemingly so far along without the input of surrounding stakeholders like Southern University.

… "There are some people who would never go to LSU for an event because of price point, because of transportation, because it's not part of their culture. If it's going to be promoted as something that benefits all of us, then all means Southern University, it means the River Center and it means LSU"

She is basically playing race card to try and get something out of deal. Money or some free time for Southern to hold events.

If Southern doesn’t require the River Center to hold these events then this doesn’t involve them at the institutional level at all. It doesn’t have to directly help the university at all as they lose nothing and give up nothing to get it built.

The Southern students, alumni, and their businesses will benefit from any increase in concerts and other events that would have bypassed Baton Rouge. Since they live in community they will also gain any benefit the city/parish gains from the project and then uses for community like every other resident.

It’s the same hold their hand out to get something for nothing that black “leaders” have been doing for decades which they conveniently forget when screaming reparations along with affirmative action, quotas, special protections, business outreaches, charities, out of proportion generational welfare usage, out of proportion violent crime, and the destruction of communities and school districts that they have been handed to run.
