CHANGING THE DIXIE CLASSIC FAIR NAME IN WINSTON SALEM NC

Marva Reid, a Winston-Salem native who grew up going to the fair, said on Tuesday that she wants to see the name changed.

“We relate the name to the Confederacy, and we relate the Confederacy to the Klan,” she said. “It is a step in the right direction.”

For her, an ideal new name would be the Winston-Salem Classic Fair.
