Durham bar hit with 'racism' boycott after refusing to serve Confederate statue protesters with invalid IDs

The activists accused the "white owned" Central Park Tavern of racism.

A group who recently toppled a Confederate statue in Durham, North Carolina has accused a “white owned bar” of racism and bombarded it with negative reviews after it refused to serve them alcohol with invalid IDs.

At least 11 members of the activist group calling itself “Defend Durham” were arrested last month after they removed a Confederate soldier monument near local government offices during a protest.

Among those arrested was Takiyah Thompson – a member of the communist Workers World Party and student at North Carolina Central University – who admitted to tying the rope on the Confederate monument that was used to pull it down.

They are notoriously bad tippers so as a general rule not a big loss.

Congratulations to the "white owned" Central Park Tavern for abiding the law.
