      How can the Star Spangled Banner be for everyone when it was established during a time when black people were still enslaved in America? I don't blame any current descendants of the ancestors who may have partaken in the horrendous business of the slave trade; however, I cannot wrap my head around the fact that it's okay to annually celebrate this country's freedom from Britain but not the freedom of those who were enslaved. I just feel like we should acknowledge ALL of American history. If neither anthem is all inclusive - considering the national anthem was made official in 1931, then maybe it's time for a new anthem that represents the melting pot America is supposed to be. If it’s supposed to include everyone, why did it take 100 YEARS for the descendants of the enslaved to receive their civil and voting rights in the mid-1960s?

      It is not the existence of the black national anthem that is racist. It is the need for it that is racist. Much like the need for HBCUs, the NAACP, the CBC, etc. If you don't notice or feel the need to complain when people of color are purposefully left and kept out of society, try not to complain when they create their own to empower themselves.

Now listen to the song about liberty compared to the slave owner written song about their victory not everyones victory and you’ll clearly see Lift Every Voice and Sing is about true liberty for all, which is why black people like the song so much and why other embrace the song just the same.
