Dolly Parton tells Billboard magazine that she supports the protest movement following the killing of George Floyd, and its push for racial justice. 'I understand people having to make themselves known and felt and seen. And of course Black lives matter.'
Two years ago, Parton renamed the Dixie Stampede dinner theater show — one of many business ventures she runs — after criticism in the wake of the 2017 Charlottesville white supremacist rally. Today the Civil War-themed show is known as Dolly Parton's Stampede. .
In her interview with Billboard, Parton addressed that controversy, saying she was guilty of"innocent ignorance" and"would never dream of hurting anybody on purpose." "When they said 'Dixie' was an offensive word, I thought, 'Well, I don't want to offend anybody. This is a business. We'll just call it The Stampede,'"she said."As soon as you realize that [something] is a problem, you should fix it. Don't be a dumbass. That's where my heart is.
