Slavery Dresses?
According to this article, the NAACP is complaining that these costumes of an Alabama contingent reminds them of slavery and shouldn’t be allowed in the inauguration parade. This really shows just how out of touch the NAACP has become.
Isn’t it ironic that the NAACP nearly without exception, supported a black man to live in a big white house with columns?
Isn’t it also ironic that the man they backed is now espousing economic policies that will enslave all of us to burdensome deficits for generations to come?

It’s all in the eye of the beholder.
Someone with a teeny smear of knowledge about historical dress should have told that guy that those dresses are straight out of the 1930s. It was impossible for fabric to be those colors before aniline dyes were invented in post-WWI Germany. Antebellum Southern white plantation women could not have dressed like that for any amount of money.
(Also, I see a couple of black women marching there…)
Heather,
You have more knowledge than I and most others in this area. As to the non white women, I’m sure the NAACP would us the word “token” in their rebuttal!
