A festival attended by all groups, black, white, and everything in between, at a time when Confederate statues were still standing, without any incidents. People were getting along better before 2020 than after the statues/history were removed.
People said nothing about the Confederate statues at the time of the Cheerwine festival, they got along fine at the time, and like the statues and businesses, the festival was taken from them.
