the National anthem is racist. The original poem says “No refuge could save the hireling and slave, From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave.” Look it up. so either the poem is calling black solders, fighting for their freedom, to die terror, or it’s saying white soldiers fighting with the British are just like black slaves. If I called someone a slave today, it wouldn’t be racist because we don’t own people anymore. Key lived in a time when white people own black people, calling someone a slave is like say, “you’re just as bad as black people.” Even with the best interpretation, the song is racist🙏🏾🙏🏾
