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.

I used to like, and respect Dolly Parton, she and I share a birthday. Now I am ashamed to share a birthday, with someone who supports thugs and murderous scum bags! F_ckDollyParton
why you cut off the part where she says, 'Everybody Lives Matter'. That's literally her saying All Lives Matter. The each on some of these articles man lol
Those of you with the whole BuT dOnT aLl LiVeS mAtTeR or wHaT aBoUt WhItE lIvEs *clearly* haven’t seen the video and the whole statement she makes.
Isn't her trademark an ample bustline? I heard she had elective breast implants and that makes Dolly Parton a FRAUD, same as her illogical sarcasm, the only thing that helps her get attention, who needs your preaching, Dolly?
Well, Hello Dolly, I will always love you.
VoiceOverPerson Um, now I see Dolly Parton's comment about black lives; many took this OUT of Context. She wasn't talking about the pol activist, destruction group but black ppl in general: they matter. Yes. We're all God's children & equal in His eyes. We're all descended frm the same parents.
Dolly - Not only do you have breasts but you now have balls.

Hey Dolly... did Cannon Hinnant's life matter?
❤️
Dolly Parton is national treasure
❣️
Does the white community matter
How unfortunate, wish Ms Parton would research a Susan Rosenberg, a BLM Member
End AFFIRMATIVE ACTION
She didn't support the Black Lives Matter Movement and what they stand for and what they are doing. She is simply saying what most of us are saying, 'All lives matter. We don't need to offend to be alive. Business is business. Only God has the privilege of judging.' Get real.
BLM movement was taken over. If they really cared about black lives, they would not be fighting to defund the police. Amid the George Floyd protests in May 2020, Chicago registered the city’s most deadly weekend in six decades: 110 shootings (85 wounded, 25 killed).
She said all asses matter?
says the queen of the plantation!
Dolly is a national treasure! She’s a great American and human!
Dolly Parton gets it. 🎶✌🏽
We don’t deserve Dolly! She’s always working to make the world better. A queen, for sure. 👑
She needs to be governor of her state. She’s amazing.
Queen 👑
'racial justice' means attacking White people, 'ending racism' means White Genocide.
All lives matter gotta boycott dolly now.
Trump in a landslide
We always gone love you , Dolly P !
🤗🫂🥲
I’m sure this comment section will be full of people who have reputable evidence to support their claims.
the idea that black lives matter is different than the group black lives matter and you can believe one and not support the other which is probably the majority position.
Dolly Statues!
She only understands what she is being fed, bless her heart.
❤️
Love Dolly ❤️
I love Dolly Parton, she's always been an example of what it means to be a good human.
