The Golliwogs was an American rock band which eventually became Creedence Clearwater Revival. Wonder what she'd think of this.

I looked the word up:

gol·li·wog or gol·li·wogg (gŏl'ē-wŏg')
pronunciation
n.

A doll fashioned in grotesque caricature of a Black male.

[After Golliwog, a character in books by Florence Upton (died
1922), American illustrator.]

I could see her getting angry, but not violent, hell she could have had whoever said it up on charges over there.
