A Louisiana cemetery has apologised after refusing to bury a local black police officer because of a decades-old provision allowing only white people.
The Oaklin Springs Cemetery board met on Thursday to change its sales contract after an outcry over the "white human beings" rule.
Officer Darrell Semien's widow called it a "slap in the face" to be denied a plot "because he's black".

How the hell can this still be a thing in 2021??
No shit. The GOP is proof that time travel is real.
Ignorant dipshit.
Go check those whitey boneyards - and you find the vast majority of the stiffs were Democrats......
It was Dixiecrats that passed all the Jim Crow laws....
...
I just can't imagine why the family wants to bury their dead in such dicey company.....
