are going by a new name. On Thursday, the country trio announced that they're dropping the word"Dixie" from their name and will thus be known as The Chicks.
The move seems to be in response to the Black Lives Matter movement, as"Dixie" was a nickname for the Confederate States of America amid the Civil War. The change is reflected on The Chicks' social media profiles and website, with a quote on the latter that reads, "We want to meet this moment." Along with the name change, The Chicks also released a timely new song and music video. Aptly titled"March March," the music video begins with the quote, "If your voice held no power, they wouldn't try to silence you."
The video goes on to show images from recent countrywide protests, while the women -- Martie Maguire, Emily Strayer and Natalie Maines -- sing lyrics about underpaid teachers, the prevalence of guns, and the youth social justice movement.

The Dixie Chicks Drop ‘Dixie’ From Their Name‘We want to meet this moment,’ the platinum-selling country group said in a statement. So dumb But they are still calling themselves 'chicks?' Chicks is a slang term for women, women implies sex is binary so under today's woke standards wouldn't that now make them transohobic? Should have changed their name to 'Irrelevant'
