Country Thunder responds to calls for comedians “Williams and Ree” to be dismissed

Complaints lodged against the comedy act of Williams and Ree are being looked at by Country Thunder organizers.

FSIN is calling on the country music festival to remove the pair after some racist comments during the show at Craven last week.

In a statement, Country Thunder GM Kim Blevins says it is a concern they do not take lightly and that racism of any kind is not tolerated.

Wiiliams and Ree refer to themselves as “The Indian and The White Guy” with Terry Ree being someone who is of Sioux descent.

The pair are scheduled to perform at Country Thunder’s Wisconsin event which begins tomorrow.
