Amid nationwide protests against racism, the country group Lady Antebellum announced that it was dropping a word associated with slavery from its name.

The popular country trio announced Thursday morning that it is dropping “Antebellum” — a word widely understood to refer to the period before the Civil War — from its name and will officially adopt “the nickname our fans gave us almost from the start.”

Causing pain was never our hearts’ intention, but it doesn’t change the fact that indeed, it did just that.
