The White Magnolia wedding venue is owned by a mother-daughter duo, Janet Henderson Cagley and Callie Richardson and was first built in 2016 - leaving many scratching their heads as to why they would choose to build the structures in a way that seemed to mimic slave cabins.
Or...y'know...cabins.
These morons are under the impression that the world was specifically built for slaves instead of the world existing and slavery being a part of it, like serfdom was in the feudal ages and servants were in all ages.
They are just cabins. They have no particular connection with any sort of bondage (although on wedding nights who knows?), aside from the fact that maybe a long time ago some people in bondage stayed in similar type cabins (along with those not in bondage).
It's just architecture

When the demand for racism outweighs the supply for all the perpetual victims out there they have to invent something else. They all learned from Al Sharpton.

Sheryl Swoopes is right: Black people can't be racist

quote:
Black or white, anyone can be prejudiced. I might not like you because of your skin color, and that makes me prejudiced. But it doesn’t automatically make me racist unless I also have the power to impact your life because of my prejudice. There are few, if any, areas of American life where Blacks hold such power. Thus, Sheryl Swoopes was correct. Blacks can’t be racist — but that doesn’t mean they can’t be prejudiced. They can.
This definition of racism opens the door to an intelligent and important conversation about the power gap between Blacks and whites. One that makes a distinction between racism and prejudice. Police brutality, overwhelmingly white-on-Black violence, is an example of racism enacted physically. Redlining, where Blacks cannot buy homes or receive loans in certain areas, is a form of economic racism. Preventing the teaching of Black history is a form of educational racism. Making it harder for Black people to vote is a form of political racism. A Black woman disparaging the abilities and career choices of a white female basketball player may be prejudiced, but it does not rise to the level of racism as defined by the Kerner Commission.
If we don’t talk about race in this country, all we will do is fight over it, often with deadly consequences. Today, there are too many examples of racism where violence, collective punishment and genocide pass as alternatives to dialogues.
And, if we are going to talk about race, a common starting point is necessary, and a decent definition of racism is as good as any. By saying Blacks can’t be racist, Sheryl Swoopes opened up a lane to the basket for a difficult, yet essential, conversation, and a path to restorative rather than retributive justice.

Use of slang occasioned by constraints of the headline enumeration. (Believe me, I tried other options.)

what better way to honor the slave families that lives there. Despite enslavement, they made a home that gave great strength to our great Nation's Character.
Starting a new family with that sort of legacy to aspire to can bring about even greater thing

Sounds like he's just trying anything that he can to eliminate a business competitor.

Just when you think these professional victims can't go any lower. Then you have the pathetic whites chiming in to support this crap.
Hopefully, the business tells these clowns to KMWA. Don't apologize.

All the mental gymnastics that goes into that shucking and jiving has to be exhausting.

I remember sharecropper's cabins in Pointe Coupee Parish and they were one thousand times crappier than the ones in the article.
And even it was slavery cosplay, would that be so bad?

Or like a whole bunch of whitey (and Italian and Irish) sharecroppers and day laborers.
