Nothing says unity like playing a seperate anthem just for black people
So inclusive!
Blessing Osamudiamen is it now though???? That’s what I thought
@Blessing Osamudiamen so you think we should be segregated again like in the 1950s.
I'm okay with this being the only anthem played.
R O Black people who are they🤔 skin color can’t be a race
As a black man this doesn’t make me feel unified with the rest of the country. This song makes me feel like I’m not equal. I’m also in a interracial marriage. Am I not supposed to be ? A lot of mixed emotions for me personally.

Nothing says strength and unity like having a separate “national anthem.”
That is the liberal way to divide us.
Separate but Equal 👍🏾✊🏽
So you're telling me that when your national anthem was written, we were together as a nation? Do you know that lift every voice and sing was official black national anthem before the star spangled banner was the official National Anthem?
@timgrantham2396 Lift every voice and sing was the black national anthem before the Star spangled banner, and black people were Republicans back then. Back history is American history, but you don't know our history
@@theight06 if “black history is American history” like you say then there’s no need for blacks to have a separate national anthem.

Can someone explain how the original national anthem is racist? I’m black and served for 25 years in the Marine Corps! I stood proudly as they displayed the Stars and Stripes every time I heard the tune! I lost many of my best friends in Afghanistan, And Iraq as many other places! Just like how I lost my friends in battle defending that red white a blue flag, a symbol of freedom and greatness. The same goes for the American national anthem! It is a courageous tale of men giving their lives to British mortars and using their bodies as a human shield to keep the colors above! If you think that has any petty thing to do with our race, than I’m sorry brother you have an issue! That song is about the resilience of the new nation, and the power to conquer a common enemy and stand ever strong!
It's not the anthem itself that is racist, it's the nation, what it was founded on, and how it has treated black Americans and POC. The anthem is used as a form a protest because before everything public comes the anthem.

no it doesnt. lift every voice & sing is for black people. gtf
Of course we do. This is called the "Black National Anthem" because it expresses the hopes of Black people so beautifully, but it has no official status, although it is often performed at public events IN ADDITION TO (never instead of) the national anthem. All this "replacement theory" paranoia is becoming ridiculous.
Incontrovertible....delusional...
Reparations are is over due to people of color..
Optimistically speaking facts...
I’m so sorry, I know you mean well and you want to be united, and you see no harm in the Star Spangled Banner. But if you look to the history as well as the additional verses of the Star Spangled Banner (which are not often sung publicly) you will be shocked, saddened and disappointed. And then you’ll have a better understanding of where different people are coming from.
This was our national anthem everyday we said this over the intercom in school stood and put our hands on our heart

And here we are placing African-Americans into their own little group and treating them as if they are not equals. We are all Americans. We are all equal and we need to stop dividing everybody up.
Well said. This is segregation, when the point is moving forward and being equal.

They are not African-American.Most have never been to African. If they, as most, are born in America, they are American. IF they are born in Africa and have applied for and gotten American citizenship, they are then African-American.

@@medicjake6198 the song was made because we weren't allowed to sing the regular one. Yall always talk about division, but do I have to remind yall who really created that division? Because it wasn't us black people. Not to mention just because it's not sung in modern times doesn't negate that there are lines in the national anthem that talk about killing slaves, OUR ancestors. Lift every voice and sing is a song that's meant to uplift EVERYONE not just black people. But yes its called the black national anthem because historically and factually, thats what it was.
We are ALL Americans, and we should be UNITED, and NOT have separated anthems for a race. That just creates more division. Division creates chaos, and chaos creates the downfall of a wonderful United States of America. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

I never subscribed to the woke NFL.
Imagine claiming something that stands for everyone is racist. Just to make a song that’s actually racist.
Thats the democrat modus operendi
It's NOT a separate anthem, and it won't replace the official national anthem.
Given our history of racism with the burden borne most heavily by black people, this is an optimistic song about putting the bad stuff behind, and about black people fully joining our society as equals. You don't need to be black to be moved by that.
It seems to be very much in the spirit of our nation's motto "E Pluribus Unum" (out of the many, we become one).

Good. Everything is not for your comfort. Some don’t get to “forget about any worry or trouble.” This isn’t for you.

This song about unity has been called the Black national anthem since 1919. I’ve been singing it in school since I was a child. Why are people only bothered by it now?
I'm not american but forgive me for saying that this is ridiculous because every black american for over 200 years never had a problem with the national anthem so why add a new one?
Best way to try and avoid racism is to not talk about it or avoid adding fuel to the fire.

Plenty of time for songs for everyone to enjoy and everyone can enjoy this one too.
Making racism stronger! MLK is turning in his grave. Two national anthems? How about we have two different drinking fountains too?
Is Rosanna Arquette going to kneel for this one too?
Succinct point my dude.
MLK is turning in his grave because 1/3rd of our country lost their minds after Obama was elected. It started with a birther lie (Obama's mother was a US citizen BORN in Wichita, Kansas... and ANY child of a US citizen automatically becomes a US citizen), then grew from there! Now, every time the analytic company that monitors social media sees enough hate filled comments about any subject, including this one, they use it to trigger/manipulate people.
That’s actually really smart
Real racist having a black anthem
Two songs before a football game = segregation
Fantastic logic.
Beautiful ❤
for all of you who can't see there are 27k dislikes on this video
Cheers
WHY CAN'T SEE IT IN MY SIDE?
@@theephraimite this anthem is embracing to our country.
@@theephraimite that literally makes no sense. Good job
@@JMPK23 no it’s saying there’s something wrong w our original anthem which literally isn’t about race
The national anthem is for every American.
We are all Americans despite skin color.
We are brothers and sisters under god.
Why do they have to keep trying to separate us?
Yes
Because they don’t want us to unite they want us to hate each other and for the weak willed it is working
Because we have, at nearly every turn, treated them as OTHER. Can you just imagine IF Lincoln had never been assassinated, and IF we were required to treat each other as the Americans you claim we are as ONE? But he did not! BTW, if you are talking about the Christian God, we capitalize His name because we believe He is the one true God. If not, I respect that too.
Having a black anthem is racist
Because they ignorant
Lol, I feel like taking a knee...and throwing up.
Pretty racist having a black anthem
@@scottfleming7985 if only we had a national anthem that stood for every race... oh wait 🤣

You got a chuckle out of me
Nice

This is way more beautiful then I expected
Next thing you know we’re gonna make anthems for the genders…
Do you not realize that this song has been the Black National Anthem since before you were born? Grow up
@@cwflad so what? It has nothing to do in nfl
@@DaVid-vt8lm The majority of players in the NFL are black. You don’t think we should honor them?
@@cwflad Lmao they must be so opressed in nfl while making millions right?
@@DaVid-vt8lm So you can only show someone respect if they are oppressed? That’s kind of a weird stance to take. And personally, i’ve been to games where players have not gotten up after a hit. I’ve seen a man get paralyzed on the first play of his first game in the NFL. They are putting their bodies on the line and if they want their anthem played before a game, i don’t think that’s something to get mad about.
We had fought to end segeration and now you all are leading us back to segeration. Congratulations
Yeah, no need to recognize all our perspectives. Just one.
did you even listen to the song
What would I be considered if I don’t stand up for this song and just remain seated?
Segregation at it's finest

@@savageog7476 enslaving black people for 400 years is racist and ya great granddaddy is a racist. We didn’t ask y’all to come to the original land, ya stole it now keep hating and singing the Real National Anthem of the Country. Lift your voice and sang

Ending of the song - "we don't wanna go back, we want to go forward"
Proceeds to bring us back to segregation
yes just the opposite way
why would you think that as segregation?
@@MichaelMeighu because the entire idea of this national anthem is that it's a black national anthem. So if you're not black. This song isn't for you. AKA segregation... Just as anything else that would be kept from you due to your race.
@@benjaminreyes3624 I hear ya. The issue is minority culture - and finding your identity as a minority is a very tricky thing. Maybe many black americans just don't relate to the culture behind the Star Sprangled Banner - which is about war. African Americans had everything stripped from them. EVERYTHING. How they find their voice and equilibrium in the USA is really up to them. No one should be able to say what their identity should be.
Several folks like Bill Maher is suggesting to replace the current one with this one.
@@MichaelMeighu this is true that African Americans have had rights stripped way away from them... It's also true that African Americans rights were restored through war. The civil war and the abolishment of slavery done by Abraham Lincoln. Society seems to not want to count that though.
How about an Irish American Anthem ?
No ones stopping you lmao
How about a National Anthem that doesn't include the word SLAVES in it? Or one that is easy to sing, like "This Land Is Your Land"?
And a Polish and a Muslim and a Jewish and a Catholic and a Hindu and a Chinese and a Braman and a Martian and a Venusian and a Pleiadian and a Russian...hey maybe they want in too...and a Cuban...
I'll shut up now.
Just passing out smiles

Only one national anthem
I love this song, but it should be used as a song of inspiration to EVERYONE. It's beautiful, poignant, encouraging. An anthem to life
The answer is no
Well now we need a Hispanic and Asian national anthem
Nah all other racicsts dont need an US anthem they all have there own countries.

Anthony W Soviet Union anthem because that’s where we’re going
Missed the boat on this one NFL. Pushing segregation. Great message for untiy. SMH.
No, you’re only racist every day
oliver guerrero no you’re racist
Democrats and the NFL have teamed up to push Segregation.
Who said white people can't participate in this??? Lyrics, "lift EVERY voice and sing"... if that triggers you then i think you are the one who wants segregation.
@JD123483 why do you keep harping on that? The only ones obsessed with calling it that seem to be white people. I call it "lift every voice and sing". Stop being so emotional and try to understand others before you react.
Once again the NFL can kiss Ol' Spot
So divisive all Lifes matter. We are all one nation. One anthem has it always has been.
So I feel like I need to keep saying this for the people in the back but this song is from the late 1800s not 2020. I often hear people say Dr.King wouldn't like this but the reality he actually sang this song at multiple events. It would be nice to do some research before you just comment, ya know?
They won’t. They’re too blinded by their hatred for anything having to do with Black people.
@@charleybenjamin4074 my God the irony in your comment....
New category on iTunes
Race Anthems
I feel like black pride has gone from pride and inclusion to victimhood and division.
i want a national anthem for my dog
Y’all are tripping in these comments. We’ve had this anthem for forever. It’s a unity song for us. Nothing is stopping you from making your own, but make it have a reason and a history because this one does.
Exactly. These obtuse “where is the Asian/Mexican/White national anthem” questions make no sense in context of this song and it’s history. This has been called the Black national anthem since 1919. It’s not something that just happened yesterday. Alicia Keys didn’t get bored and make this. There is historical context behind this song.
@@charleybenjamin4074, no there's not, it's dividing our country in half!
It is 'y'all' time.
Why would we want a white national anthem? It would just cause more division than this one already is
Someone sure passed grammar class!
