Dafuq?
It’s a federal holiday. Fair question.
Literally most black people never heard of it until it became a federal holiday we did not ask for. It's a Deep South thing. Nobody gives a rat's ass about you swimming
Black woman here and I disagree that most black people never heard of it.
Although, for sure no one cares about anyone swimming. In fact, that's what my kids will be doing that day.

These are 2 totally different things. A luau is appropriation and can be culturally insensitive.
Simply practicing on a day that is a holiday is not offensive/no more offensive then doing any other activity on a holiday.

Op here. Thanks for the responses. “Of course” was my reaction too but our head coach asked and I wanted to be sure.

op is hoping someone will post that black people don't swim so they won't care.
