    Because of the fact that it exists to begin with. It is exclusionary and divisive. We already have a gay national anthem and a black national anthem and an Italian American national anthem, insert any demographic national anthem you want, it starts

    Who does it exclude? Why couldn't a person of another race sing this song?

    One of the greatest moments in sports history. Will never forget her singing the anthem.

    I didn't say that was divisive. You and your childish word games. You are king of the sophomoric low forms of arguing. I said having a "black" national anthem was divisive because it is. There is no such thing as "black" national anthem and there never can be. It's contradictory because "black" implies a specific subdivision/subset of people based on racial identity while "National" implies all racial identities or rather NO racial identity. It's a national identity based on being American. And that's the point I feel you will never understand because you are unable or unwilling to separate anything and everything from racial/identitarian politics.

    Snowflakes? We've had to deal with your crying for the last 4 years and still going strong. Good for you I'm happy that you're watching football.

    I'm done interacting with you after this response. You've proven to be an avowed racist who demands "restorative justice" if a black person is killed by police yet remain silent when children are gunned down in the streets. Six children have been murdered in Chicago this year. Six. 22 were killed in Baltimore last year. You haven't said anything about them because to you their lives don't matter. All they are are grist for the mill on your way to some socialist utopia. So go ahead and raise your fist for George Floyd who put a gun to the stomach of a pregnant woman while robbing her. Say Breonna Taylor's name but don't mention she was part of a drug ring whose boyfriend shot police who were serving a legal warrant. Go ahead and tell me that because I'm white I owe reparations to black people for slavery that ended 200 years ago. Do all of that while ignoring the children dying at your doorstep whose blood is on your hands.

    There isn't a white national anthem. That's the point.


    What is the black nation?

    If you take a gander at who I was responding to with that post, it wasn't you. It was jonboy.

    If this occurs, it certainly shows who the real racists are...
    I have said for a while, that there is one community ere racism runs rampant, and it’s the same community that claims to hate it so much. Maybe some homes don’t have mirrors.

    I love that song. It's a Christian hymn that's been sung in churches for over a century. Calling it the "Black National Anthem" is incredibly racist since there is no black nation.

    Good timing on this as well! I'll enjoy watching our once in a lifetime QB dice up defenses.
    My love for my country is greater than my love for football. And I won’t give me time or money to an organization that is supporting a self described Marxist organization.

    And sorry you had to sit through glorification of the people who volunteered to protect your freedom. Did you need to a tissue after watching that, Snowflake?
