With so much taxpayer money involved, the state should build and run it itself under the Department of Culture and Tourism.

(1) Terrible location. Needs to be closer to the quarter.

(2) This museum only gets state funding if the organizers agree not to include any critical race theory and anti-white propaganda. The libs backing this project will never agree to that though.

1) it’ll be part of the big development over there. Large hotel, top golf, maybe a soccer stadium. Etc…

2) the folks I know involved are not latoya fans, though yes, liberals

WHy not have a national twerking center with twerk off competitions, twerk-a-thons for the couple who can twerk the longest, twerking tied to gymnastics, etc.

Start small, in an abandoned store, and charge admission based on distance from the stage.

This sounds like the 21st Century version of the World’s Fair boondoggle. Bankruptcy lawyers will feast.

The state doesn't have a spare $75 million, so, unfortunately, it has to be a no, but thanks for asking. Take care, now. Bless your hearts.
