"Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) took to social media on Sunday to inform his followers he will not be watching Super Bowl LVIII over the singing of “Black national anthem.”
At the start of Super Bowl at Allegiant Stadium, Andra Day performed the song Lift Every Voice and Sing for the second time in Super Bowl history. The song is nicknamed the Black national anthem because it speaks to the racial injustices faced by the Black community in the U.S."

The singing of Lift Every Voice and Sing was for Black History month. I do not believe that this will break the country. It's an acknowledgement, and then we move on.
I find it odd that the winner of the Super Bowl is declared the “world champion” when the game is only American. No other countries participate.
Agreed. we watch WORLD FOOTBALL, (soccer)🫶👍
Discerning people will routinely find such propaganda like this odd. The programmed masses Will however find themselves filled with pride over such distinction. You know pride the deadliest of seven deadly sins? Get it?
If your question was rhetorical ... my bad.
Japan and Canada both play and nither want any smoke with with the NFL.
If no other countries participate, then they are the best in the world. “World champions”, some might say.
When something is called a world champion it does not automatically mean that, look at boxing where there are like at least four different world championships in the heavyweight division
The NAME of the song is "Lift Every Voice And Sing". If it makes you feel better, leave off the "Black National Anthem". Why not listen to the lyrics of both ...ALL the lyrics (long verson)...see, which one is calling for unity. Then research which lyricists believed we should be ONE nation. 😊
This is political... This is not the first time the black national anthem has been sung at a major sporting event. These haters are looking for any reason to try and start a civil war. It's sickening!!!
REMEMBER THAT IT'S BLACK HISTORY MONTH!
Your kind have no culture and no history.
Who gives a shit....
@@bighomiestevethemetalhead8131 Obviously triggered/snowflake losers like you to give as much crap to even be drawn to these videos when they can be EASILY ignorable, your retortion makes you look weak AF.
how can we forget, with so many reminding us? thank you though I did not forget
@@mpirron1 You're welcome.
To come together and share the experience is the purpose of the black national anthem . The national anthem was never meant for everyone. It’s in the lyrics. You cannot hide the dark part of the song and pretend it doesn’t exist.
Wow I've been singing the National Anthem for 40 years and I never noticed a dark part, probably because there isn't one, as for this traitorous terrorists national anthem it should be labeled hate speech
What i have written that pissed off GQP types: First, the song was never announced as the "Black National Anthem" at the stadium. Second, if you're outraged over that song but not America The Beautiful or God Bless America, you're saying volumes without saying a word.
we got a BlueAnon right here lmfao! 95% downvoted this garbage slop song. thats a LOT of GQP 😚
Ok….the real question is, “Why don’t white folk feel proud to sing the black national anthem as well?” Might that be because we as a society haven’t come quite as far as we would like to believe??? I know 10s of millions of black folk who love and feel a sense of pride when they hear the star spangled banner….even though the song wasn’t originally written for us.
There's nothing about the Star Spangled Banner that applies it was written for a particular group. That's your problem.
@@telescopicS627 Europeans are not white, American, or indigenous to this land. And that is your problem now that the TRUTH is here.
@@telescopicS627check out the third verse and get back to us....
@@terrencemyers1033 Then again neither are blacks. Bon voyage!
@@alb8413 check out the fourth verse and don't get back to me.
If you guys are going to talk about the Black National anthem or other black issues please start bringing on black people who the experts to talk about them.
Nothing more dangerous then a white liberal -malcolm x
Agreed
Totally agree. I've read a lot of black history: Booker T, WEB Du Bois, King, Malcolm, Nat Turner, slave trade, life during slavery, what happened after the civil war, on through early 20th century, up through the Civil Rights Act.
But I would never, ever claim to actually know what it's like. And I would never, ever speak as if I did.
Yes being black makes you a expert on all things black lol and whites should just be quiet.... sure any race can figure out how to do amazing things... but if you white you can't understand black stuff lol racism and segregation are good things apparently.... when they talk about teachers they should only have teachers on to talk... and when it's disabled people issues... only have disabled people on..... I mean what even is a host of a show.. lol you people are so slow its wild
@@ncwordman claim to know what's what's like?? Just being black? Lol that's to complex for you to comprehend?? The black experience is just some huge mystery to you? Lol the white guilt is strong with this one
How about no national anthem before sporting events.
I actually agree with you. Not that it would be unpatriotic, it's just why even invite the obligatory political opinions to cloud what the event is all about, sports competition. The NFL fkd up way back in the early 2000's when they started the whole SUPPORT THE TROOPS campaign. That's when political discourse started to infect the brains of your average consumer of sports.
Also agree!!
Everyone seems to be ignoring and definitely not mentioning that the third verse of the Star Spangled Banner’s third verse excludes Blacks from inclusion. So why should we honor such a song?
Right it’s a raycist song. They conveniently left out those parts..
PEOPLE DON’T WANT THE TRUTH, SO THEY DON’T RESEARCH THE LYRICS.
Which lyric is specifically referred to?
@@INDIGO.GODDESS_573 but wouldn't taking the lyricd out of the national anthem a show of unity? .
I mean it's almost the same reason why black ppl wanted the statue of Robert e Lee tore down..
Same thing with the lyrics so should we re enter those verses back into the star spangled banner so thaf we actually have a white national anthem? .and the blacks can keep theirs too?
There are 285 games in an NFL season including the postseason. The "black national anthem" is played in 1 game. The official national anthem is played in all 285 games.
To be outraged by 1 out of 285 is absolutely insane.
wnba fan I see.
@@Boris-kd3jz are you saying WNBA fans don't get their panties in a twist? Surprisingly progressive of you.
detest progressive folx, they're just lazy socialists@@azinoodhomi4419
Your optics are off. It’s not about the total number of games vs. anything. That is not the issue
@@Ruby_Villain what's the issue then? Is it about jingoism in general because I don't see Matt Gaetz crying about the national anthem being played. He's just mad that anybody who would want to hear Lift Every Voice and Sing gets given even an inch (or in this case, 1 game out of 285). Normal culture war bs.
Its been sung before superbowl since 2020. Gaetz choosing to be offended now.
THIS!!!
It's an election year. So, there's that. :)
Was it called the Black national anthem other times as well? I think that's the real issue is we already have a national anthem therefore to call it the black national anthem is a slap in the face to our national anthem.
@@PSU2024 It's not a slap in the face, because someone called it that. You're being too literal, and assuming them calling it the black national anthem (DECADES AGO), means it's an actually national anthem. So just calm down.
@@ncwordman It is a slap in the face. If white people made a separate "white" national anthem all you race accusing liberals, ESPECIALLY TYT, would spin it that its racism and you know it. It's bad enough you have a song that promotes more woke BS but now you want to call it the Black National Anthem and say..."oh no biggie just calm down." Whats next a Latino National Anthem for all illegal immigrants you guys cried racism over when we had tight border security. Oh wait let me guess, you'll say I'm racist for saying that.
At Florida A&M University (HBCU), we have been playing this song with the National Anthem for years before each game. This song plays a representation of the black culture because we all know that we are not the "Land of the Free". "Lift Every Voice and Sing" speaks to all and not just one community. If you want us to have one Anthem, then we need to change the lyrics of this song to fit our nation as one.
Go RATTLERS ! 😁
I’m sorry but as a black person with critical thinking skills I’m sick of it all especially the pandering
I’m tired of talking about race let it go yall dam
No no no, u need to take the bone they give u.
Just be a good tyt viewer and feel like a victim and demand segregation In everything including a national anthem lol
I'm a blond/blue semi-red neck country boy and I 100% agree with you BROTHER. The Truth is, before God, ALL lives matter. Let's move beyond the color of a person's skin. As MLK stated, it's about the "content of the character" of a person, not the color of skin....
AMEN
A black person who thinks for themselves and doesn’t go with the narrative, sure way to get hated on by the left. Hell they might even call you racist, like they do everyone else who disagrees with them.
We never had a shared identity to lose
Yeah, keep pushing that divisive narrative. Biden is bringing millions more latinos to replace you. And they're more than happy to take your place 🤣🤣
We? Who is we?
As Hispanics are 18% of thee population, maybe we deserve an anthem too? We clean, serve, and break our backs, yes! HISPANICS DESERVE THEIR OWN ANTHEM 🇵🇦🇵🇦🇵🇦
@@hot5835 Then write one, S. A.
@@hot5835 I say go for it. Watch us not care. Matt Gaetz will care though lol
@@hot5835 it is clear that you agree with the original comment, so that "we" includes you.
Black folks being excluded from nearly everything in America decide to create their own things, and NOW folks wanna say “we’re all Americans”…Ana, please 🙄
Well, Hispanics are 18% of thee population, maybe we deserve an anthem too? We clean, serve, and break our backs, yes! HISPANICS DESERVE THEIR OWN ANTHEM 🇵🇦🇵🇦🇵🇦
Turdskeen demons big mad lmao. You n-words are so intimidated by WM. You have a genetic memory of being violated by your owners. The truth is, we are just better. The WM are at the top of the food chain. We are the strongest and the smartest. We are the most powerful group of men in the world. The most desired, the most feared, the most respected. We are everything you want to be, but are not.
Tell me only one thing in which they are excluded. One. Just one.
Nothing like separation to promote unity 👍
We were never united in the first place 60 years ago the civil rights act was passed and you're people fought extremely hard for against anything that would help us
We'll stop singing it when America actually starts treating us as equals. To this day we still face policy and divisiveness against our community so NO we won't be one country until others starts treating us the way they're automatically treated.
Holy s***, get over yourself. You're treated as equally as anybody else. I'm a white man and I can remember a time when I couldn't even get a small business loan. Because I was a white man but they would have given me money hand over fist if i had been a black man, so get over yourself.
Quit crying and complaining. You are equal, and we only have one anthem , and it's the national anthem , and if you don't like that , get the living f&ck out of my country.
You have isolated yourselves through your own violence and racism. If you dislike a country there is absolutely nothing stopping you from leaving. And take your racism and entitlement with you.
@@AwesomeBabyBoomer No one cares what you think Pink-Toes. Go back to crying about how no one wants to date you, and Mermaids of Color. Grown folks are talking.

News flash : we have always been divided by race .. always
And maybe it’s time to put all the shenanigans aside and come together as human beings? Aren’t we a progressive society? It’s r that what progressives do? Cause progress?
We are also divided by intelligence ability. and lactose tolerance. but nobody wielding influence over the masses. are using them to program people
@@Ruby_Villain No ma'am. We are not a progressive society. We are a conservative society. That's literally the reason why we're even having this conversation.
A conservative (example: any Republican politician) got offended by someone singing a song that was billed as being the "Black National Anthem" (even though it's just an "adopted" song by the NAACP), and decided to throw a performative fit for you all.
And like good little lemmings, many on the Right ran over that cliff behind their leaders.
So, no. If you are a progressive, you couldn't care less about this, but if you're a conservative, then someone needs to be fired for making the frikkin' Superbowl all woke and stuff!
Hope that explains the shenanigans to you.
@@mpirron1 Did Skynet make you write that? What programming? It's a 100 year old poem written to Lincoln! Really?
@@Ruby_Villain that all depends on white people we didn’t create the division and we aren’t the ones keeping it strong don’t ask black people to fix racism it’s a white problem
There's no such thing as a "black national anthem". There's only a National Anthem. So there's no one triggered.
You're welcome
you are not Black, so you are clueless on what we, as Black people, hold as OUR anthems...and "Lift Every Voice" is OURS ....we will stand for that and not "Star Spangled Banners"....
AMEN
@@scorpiopariah8573 You aren't "black people" you're "people". Stop making excuses for your failures. I know many people with a better tan than I have, and they don't agree with your lazyazz. But if you really want your own national anthem, go make your own country. This one is taken.
I kneel during the black national anthem.
If that’s what you like 😂
Quit lying punk..u probably cried because u were so triggered.
So brave
Well Anna the problem is Black Americans and Brown Americans will always be labeled that by White Americans so what are we talking about. Last time I checked the NFL is like 70% Black American and white people still watch so who cares if they sing 3 national anthems. When racism stops in this country which it hasn't then we can start talking about one Anthem for all Americans.
Anna, black folks didn't move themselves into an identity group. We were forcibly put into our identity group. This conversation is annoying.
I so agree on this. Anna acts like by fixing anything this conservatives complain about is going to unite us. Here is one for you... Stop being racist and then we can talk. Anna the division is their because conservatives hate anyone who is not the in-group. Minorities should never have to appease a group that wants to get rid of them.
She is a real weirdo when it comes to race…especially Black related things
And she wasn’t always like this. It’s fairly recent…I noticed it start around the same time as the “birthing person” controversy
She said she’s scared to talk to POC in case she says the wrong thing. That’s a wild thing to say even if you’re being hyperbolic
But no one says you gotta stay there! Getting ACTIVE with your Votes is a good way to change that victim Identity you're holding onto. Maybe this conversation should be annoying, because pleasant isnt working too good at the moment...
Exactly and it's very insulting
This is why Slavery in America needs to be taught properly.
Black History is American History.
You learn so many other things from it too.
To keep dancing around racism is a waste of my time.
Btw... I just found out George Sampson invented the clothes drier amongst so many other inventions.
If you took all the contributions Black people have made in this country and got robbed, it would be a different America.
#Blackinventorsof america
If you are born in the United States of America, it matters not your color. It doesn't matter at all. You were born in the borders of the United States in this great country. You are an American. There is one national anthem for America. You are a United States citizen. Regardless of what your skin color is, skin color has nothing to do with it. If you were born in this country, you were born in this country. There has been one national anthem. The Star-Spangled banner is the national anthem of the United States. You don't need to sing anything else. It doesn't matter your color. You're an American. The term African American is another thing that doesn't make sense. I'm a white man. I'm a white conservative. I have no problem with skin color. You were born an American. You're an American. Whether you're black, white, green, yellow, blue rainbow. It don't matter. You're an American citizen, one national anthem, one people, one America
What if we just didnt play any national anthem?
As Hispanics are 18% of thee population, maybe we deserve an anthem too? We clean, serve, and break our backs, yes! HISPANICS DESERVE THEIR OWN ANTHEM 🇵🇦🇵🇦🇵🇦
Can’t happen. White national anthem is coming next, followed by Latin America anthem, and Asian anthem. We get to experience them all. We are an inclusive society, no?
To Gaetz et al nobody gives a F about your feelings

At least THIS anthem isn’t inherently a racist one… 😆
Where's the Vietnamese national anthem? Or the Jewish anthem?

I’m not a republican or democrat, but I won’t vote for a party that talks the constitution when it benefits them… and I won’t vote for a party that that backs a guy who says he’ll be a dictator on day 1…. .which means the end of the constitution…..

Say you have never actually listened to the interview you are referencing without telling me you never listened to it.
My TV remote came with a mute button. I never listened to the national anthem.
It has nothing to do with football IMO.

I'm sorry to say that the national anthem is not for everybody
youre right. its not for americans!
You should not have the national anthem before any sporting fixtures they are not national events
Agreed. This is strictly an American phenomenon, basically no other country on Earth plays the national anthem during sporting events unless it is for the Olympics or World Championship event, where you are literally pitting your country against another country. Playing the national anthem where an American team is playing another American team is simply idiotic. America vs Canada, or UK or India, or Japan, etc? Sure, go for it... but it is comically stupid to do and everyone outside the US just chuckles at how stupid it seems.
I mean… that’s like your opinion.
@@Hathur it’s an American tradition. As much as you are trying to erase America and everything it has every stood for, it’s not going to happen on this one. Direct your energy into something more positive and progressive
@@Ruby_VillainYour country literally cheapens your anthem by playing it at countless meaningless events. In my country, I'm lucky to hear it 2 or 3 times publicly in an entire year, usually less. The only time I hear it with 100% certainty is on Remembrance Day to honor our fallen soldiers. It has MEANING and impact because it is reserved strictly for events and occasions of societal importance. When we hear our anthem, we know it's for something special... not because a bunch of random athletes from random cities are playing an irrelevant game for the purpose of putting money into the pockets of a giant corporate conglomerate. Your anthem means nothing, you blare it loud and proud if someone farts in the wind. It has lost any meaning and importance.
Isn't the third verse of the star spangled banner explicitly racist and intended as a threat to the ex-slave black Colonial Marines who fought for the British for land and freedom?
Is it any wonder that the free descendants of slaves might want a better anthym to celebrate their country?
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 Exactly. And not that I’d expect the right wing grifters to know this in any way but for fuck sake so called progressive journalist can’t be bothered so look deeper into why there’s a blk national anthem. And honestly it’s the inner racism that would assume blk flk would act without cause that prevents ANA from even typing the topic into google. Because blk flks are the ones who need to stop dividing Americans. This is a failure of both progressive and journalistic integrity.
We can all be" Americans " when we are allowed to have our stories respected. The NFL is more than 70% black! To not respect the majority of your workforce and their concerns is ludicrous!
Blacks are RACIST. Can you imagine a frickin WHITE National Anthem ??? The blacks would be screamin and shittin their panties
@@shaunelijah2232lol where do you think the National Anthem come from! Hint wt people!🤦♀️
Black folks are 12.5% of the US population and commit 31% of the violent crime, (FBI statistics). Now THAT is ridiculous AND ludicrous.
Simple Google search and you find "White individuals were arrested more often for violent crimes than individuals of any other race and accounted for 59.1 percent of those arrests. Of adults arrested for murder, 51.3 percent were Black or African American, 45.7 percent were White, and 3.0 percent were of other races."

Just remember this oppressive white nation made all those blacks rich 🤑.
Are these the same conservatives who run out to the concession stands during the national anthem to avoid the crowds?
There cannot be healing until America apologizes for slavery, segregation, jim crow laws , redlining, police brutality etc.. and then repairs and atones for all the damage Black people endured. I grew up hearing and singing this song and it taught me love and community when I was growing up in a racist middle class town. These songs gave black people strength during violent times and it was created with love. Black people will always unite as a community to uplift each other. We can never share identity in America until the entire nation understands the value of black identity , makes it a mandatory school curriculum to learn full scale black history education not an abbreviated revisionist version, teach about black contributions to this country. In order to heal and share identity we have to open the conversation and listen to black voices and make amends. Until then, we will continue to proudly sing our Black national anthem celebrating we have survived and are still here. Happy Black History Month!

The song does not create divisions, people in response to the song create division. Also division has not been around only for the past several years, the division was around in this country since 1619.
Lift Every Voice was written to include everyone. The other song blatantly excludes black people. It literally says we are the "land of the free", not the land of the slaves. Fran made sure to let the slaves know his song does not include them, which he specifically mentions in the second verse.
Land of the free was an aspirational line. Key's history showed he wasn't a fan of slavery.
@@adappergiraffe I know what he wrote. You can believe whatever you like. Here's the part that they don't sing. "No refuge could save the hireling and slave
From the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave,
And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave."
@@adappergiraffe He was a slave owner. He was an elitist do-gooder who thought sending freed slaves to Africa would be better than keeping them in the United States. He even had his own Uncle Tom watching over his slaves.
O say can you see, by the dawn's early light,
What so proudly we hail'd at the twilight's last gleaming,
Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight
O'er the ramparts we watch'd were so gallantly streaming?
And the rocket's red glare, the bomb bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there,
O say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
On the shore dimly seen through the mists of the deep
Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?
Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,
In full glory reflected now shines in the stream,
'Tis the star-spangled banner - O long may it wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
And where is that band who so vauntingly swore,
That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion
A home and a Country should leave us no more?
Their blood has wash'd out their foul footstep's pollution.
No refuge could save the hireling and slave
From the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave,
And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
O thus be it ever when freemen shall stand
Between their lov'd home and the war's desolation!
Blest with vict'ry and peace may the heav'n rescued land
Praise the power that hath made and preserv'd us a nation!
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto - "In God is our trust,"
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
That's from the transcript he wrote that day from the library of congress.....enlighten us....where is the racism? Be aware I know where you are going to say.....And when you do I am prepared to teach you something that will enlighten you. Go ahead say the slave line in part THREE not two......you know the part where he wrote about the slaves taking a spot holding the banner through the bombardment with their white counterparts.....the site that had a slave owner start freeing his slaves, hire one to run his farm and defend them as well as their owner in court. The site from the enemy ship that made him become the leader of the group that wanted slaves freed and shipped back to Africa so he could slow them from being shipped but freed none the less. But sure listen to the libs version of why the line is there. By the way that man died a democrat......roughly 40 years after the supposed swap of beliefs......same as Stevens the confederate vp the left is trying to use to remove trump from the ballot.....another dem who by the way your party voted in several times after being the confederate vp.
@@adappergiraffe that is incorrect. Francis Scott Key was in fact, a proponent of slavery. When he was captured by Black British Mariners, he let his anger be known in his "Star Spangled Banner" poem.
The irony of TYT calling people whiney like the last 8 years of them having dramatic melt downs by kitchen sink yelling at the camera like a homicidal lunatic is just hilarious.
This song has been around for over 100 years because many African Americans were outside the American body politic. This song spoke truth to power about that situation. Johnson did not write it to supplant any anthem. No other American minoritized group wrote a song to address their situation that went on to become a national and international rally cry. About 75% of the NFL players are Black, many--not all--who grew up singing that song. It's not a decisive song. The lyrics are aspirational about being a part of America.
Moreover; read the full lyrics of the national anthem. Not just the verses they sing on tv, the whole song.

I’m confused when you say being a part of America, because black folk like this seem to hate America and all it stands for
“Being a part of America” is not something the left understands. You advocate for the destruction of America, not the success of it. Your comment is rejected out of hand.
No leftist understands what “being a part of America” means. You hate America. We can see right through this.
We were ALWAYS divided! What shared identity???
we are American's but when We have been second hand for 400 years, and no-one said anything about it, but when we stand up for our-self, We are the problem. i wonder why.
no sir ...being an "American" is to follow whom this country was named after, Amerigo Vespucci...an Italian sailor, navigator and slave trader/owner...is that you? Not me.
YOU BLACKS ARE ALWAYS CRYING RACE CARD !! YOUR FREE TO GO BACK TO AFRICA .....
Um the people that “spoke” about it were white.. they stood up for them against their own families and neighbors. They went to battle for them when no one listened to them. The slaves did not free themselves. White men do not think as a group like blks try too.. you miss the point when you oversimplify history.. not everyone is a tyrant and not everyone is ignorant. The truth is we all think differently from one another and worrying about color in America works about as well as building a car out of mashed potatoes.

When people say come together they usually mean do things our way
Exactly! "Come together" is telling black people to forsake their culture for white culture.
@@Issues-fy5sg
Pray tell, what is this white culture of which you speak?
Make sure it doesn't involve any other color.
@@WAEVOICE Note sure what you mean by involving any other color. White culture is seen as mainstream, so it means that young talented black professionals already in fear that their performance is received extra scrutiny because of their skin color are forced to learn songs from artists they see no value in and have never heard of (e.g., Neil Diamond or Jimmy Buffet) just to fit in at corporate events where they expect everyone to sing along to "Sweet Caroline" and "Margaritaville," which are not nearly as universally known or appreciated as the white culture believes. In the inverse it means that high level white politicians (who have never had to know anything about black culture) are absolutely shocked to learn that there is a song referred to as the "black national anthem" that has been at the core of black American culture since 1917 (14 years before Star Spangled Banner became the official US anthem). White culture is Rolling Stones Magazine listing the greatest songs of all time and not including "My Girl" by the Temptations. It's People Magazine listing the world's 100 most beautiful people and 90% of them are white when whites only make up 16% of the world's population. It's Taylor Swift receiving Album of the Year or Music Video of the Year with something generic and forgettable while all-time masterpieces by black artists lose out to her. So, saying "come together as Americans" typically means muting minority cultures to embrace the mainstream culture, which in America, is extremely white and often oblivious to the history, struggles, values, culture, and ethos of people who are not white.
We're divided because there are racists. Daahhhhh. Also the national anthem is not for us.
And its mostly due to the democrats and liberals trying to accuse everyone who simply has a different opinion as racists and bigots. TYT's have a very bad habit of that, were not all drones but apparently everyone should think and feel the same way about everything in the world. Sorry thats not how shit works. Were not divided because of racists.... were divided because people mostly liberals and democrats cant accept anyone that doesnt think exactly like they do...again thats not how shit works. If not having an opinion makes someone a racist or a bigot for non racist shit than yeah you're going to be calling people racists and bigots who arent that way. But thats the typical liberal democrat response if you dont think like us you're a racist and bigot. TYTs constantly tells people that.
Before the game, conservatives were saying they should play "courtesy of the red white and blue" in place of/before the national anthem to honor Toby Keith.
Also, I'm not trying to come together with anyone who supports a literal dictator, just sayin.

TYT does realize that only those in the media and those who want to divide refer to it as the Black National Anthem right? They don’t call it that prior to the performing of it. The introduce it as “Lift Every Voice and Sing.” That’s not dividing anyone. But I’m sorry, the Star Spangled Banner was written by a slave owner and has lyrics about how slaves that revolt will die and was written at a time when they land of the free did not mean everyone. So if they want to sing a more inclusive song after it, I’m all for it. This idea that it creates division is dumb. The division is created by the unwillingness of white people (of which I am one) to understand the history of the Star Spangled Banner and why minority communities might feel a bit left out of its’ message. Especially when simply silently protesting (a Constitutional right) during it is met with such anger.
LIFT EVERY VOICE AND SING LYRICS
Lift every voice and sing,
'Til earth and heaven ring,
Ring with the harmonies of Liberty;
Let our rejoicing rise
High as the list'ning skies,
Let it resound loud as the rolling sea.
Sing a song full of the faith that the dark past has taught us,
Sing a song full of the hope that the present has brought us;
Facing the rising sun of our new day begun,
Let us march on 'til victory is won.
Stony the road we trod,
Bitter the chastening rod,
Felt in the days when hope unborn had died;
Yet with a steady beat,
Have not our weary feet
Come to the place for which our fathers sighed?
We have come over a way that with tears has been watered,
We have come, treading our path through the blood of the slaughtered,
Out from the gloomy past,
'Til now we stand at last
Where the white gleam of our bright star is cast.
God of our weary years,
God of our silent tears,
Thou who has brought us thus far on the way;
Thou who has by Thy might
Led us into the light,
Keep us forever in the path, we pray.
Lest our feet stray from the places, our God, where we met Thee,
our hearts drunk with the wine of the world, we forget Thee;
Shadowed beneath Thy hand,
May we forever stand,
True to our God,
True to our native land.
We can

Sigh... this song was written in 1900...
And the Star Bangled Banner already fits that description of a "White National Anthem".
I didn’t divide myself into any group. The division in this country was engineered and maintained by who? NOT ME, that’s who. Whenever we do something “Black”, everyone wants to talk about division and now let’s all hold hands. Until cosmetology requires EVERYONE to know how to style Black hair safely, I will go to a Black salon. Until Black businesses get the same access to venture capital as other businesses (the statistics tell us so…don’t @ me), I will consciously spend my money with Black businesses. We did not chose our division, or do we have the privilege of ignoring it. When we have our basic rights and freedoms, and a reasonably safe existence in this country, maybe then, we can play “trust circle”. My Black culture is important to me, and I have no intention of hiding it, or “assimilating” to make others feel less “excluded”. Once again…division, exclusion, “separate but equal”…all concepts WE were forced to live with. It was not a choice, and therefore is not our problem to fix.

That all sounds good, that we all should share an American identity. Easy for one to say when you are other than Black. There is a reason why it is important for Black Americans to have our own identity. #perspective
Trash
We have never had a shared identity. That will never happen unless everyone is blind. The Black National Anthem has been around since JWJ wrote it and since then we sang it in our churches and schools. It speaks to Black American history and experience in this country during and after slavery. That's our history, so of course that doesn't matter to some folks and that was something we always knew. The more things change the more they remain the same.
The problem is that blacks don’t want unity. They purposefully choose to be divisive, and highly racist in the name of “our history.” The problem is that many in the black community seem to forget the significant social, cultural and economic improvements seen in the black community immediately after slavery simply because black Americans sought to integrate into American culture. Black households were gaining economic wealth due to high employment rates, black fathers were present in the home, literacy rates rose dramatically. Things weren’t perfect. But they were heading in the right direction, and all that was taking place before the passing of the civil rights act. What happened? The country you all seemingly despise was giving you all everything you had asked for, and now you’re back to a position that is arguably much worse than the years immediately following emancipation. Again, what happened?
Expect White National Anthem, followed by Latin American National Anthem, then Asian American National Anthem. We can represent every group equally. Great idea, right??? (Yeah, neither is black national anthems)
@@John-jz7zz 🤣🤣🤣 you're delusional. Blacks aren't the ones going around telling whites they don't belong here or to go back to their country. Also, the significant social, cultural, and economic "improvements" you talk about were inevitable and had nothing to do with integrating into American culture. Blacks went from slavery, where we we're owned as property and had nothing, even though it was our blood sweat and tears that built this country, to being free and living on our own. You seem to forget after slavery, there was segregation and Jim crow, you also seem to forget, that during segregation, we were first made to integrate because racist white people burn down and destroyed all the predominantly black towns that we built up. This country didn't give us anything, we fought for what we got, yet we continue to get shitted on. We are in a worse position now than after Emancipation because of people who think like you. If you're going to talk about history, at least learn it first
I would just like to point out that America has always been divided in this way, there is nothing new about the last few decades other than the fact that "others" feel like they can actually say something now. They are no longer being silenced as they were a few decades ago. Things are better now, not worse, and the fact that you don't get that is kind of sad. It's kind of like saying "I wish those black, gay, etc., people would just shut up again."
So does that mean I can write a white national anthem? We are divided and can’t come back together, is that right?

I'm waiting for the Hispanic national anthem, the asian national anthem and the pacific islander national anthem, etc...
Did Hispanics or asians help George washington win the war? Did Lincoln thank them for helping him win the war and fighting for the union?

It amazes me how both Conservatives and Liberals are triggered by the singing of a 120 year old song that many have been singing for years at all civic, church, memorial, etc. gathering their entire life.

Idiocracy.
Team America: World Police reference.
