The 2008 Rose Festival will have an African American Lady in Waiting. It is not racist. The Museum honoring the festival has for years showcased Earl Campbell with a permanent exhibit on his contribution to the rose growing industry and his importance to Tyler. The festival also allowed Jewish girls to be presented when other debutante festivals barred them. It is a festival with volunteer opportunities for everyone in the community.
