The Hurricane Center denies that African-American names are purposely excluded from the list. "We try to be as diverse as possible." said Kyle Joplin, the center's deputy director, who is white. "As a matter of fact, Chantal is on the list for 2013, and next year we have Joaquin, like that Florida basketball player."
"We believe storms that cause mass destruction and human suffering should still be named after white people." said Herman.
The group has submitted a storm name list to the Hurricane Center for immediate consideration: Artrus, Beyoncé, C4, Dwantrell, Eldrick, Florina, G'Money, HerWanda, Isaiah, Jai'helen, Kerrwinn, LaQuisha, Mgambe, Namika, Oprah, Portrell, Rai'Shawn, Serena, Tyrell, Venus, and Walter.
