It's not something that ever occured to me tbh, but here are ten Afro-American country artists who, if asked, might have disagreed with you:-

Charley Pride comes to mind, though he isn't really my cup of tea.

Actually, I can limit my favorite country music artists to Johnny Cash, maybe some Hank Williams, and a lot of the alt-country (I like Neko Case too). Mindfulness, you'd be surprised at just how many country artists are anything but racist (Johnny Cash and Steve Earle are two names that come to mind). Yeah, there is a lot of right wing attitudes within the music but the exceptions really shine through.
