It’s sung in every black church (I’m sure you’ve never been to one). Beyoncé, who was the first black female to sing at Coachella, performed it and most white people were in tears. You should have been there. The 3rd verse was quoted at Obama’s inauguration but you obviously missed it. Compare that third verse to Francis Scott Keys RACIST 3rd verse? Which one is more appropriate for our country?

    Dude, I have numerous black friends and acquaintances, and I bet 90% of black people in America didn't know there was a "Black Anthem" until today, and that is IF they read the sports related news from the NFL. Much like last month when America was informed that there was a date known as Juneteenth.

    It'll be a mess if they stand for the Black National Anthem and kneel for the regular National Anthem.

    The NFL is going to play The black national anthem before every game. That just makes me feel so much better as a black man. Perhaps after that, they will serve fried chicken.

    Appropriate to who? YOU? Have you asked others? Study your history. In the 1920s there was much controversy over what should be our national anthem. Many northerner's wanted the Battle Hymn of the Republic. Many others wanted America the Beautiful. Southerners sided with the Star-Spangled Banner along with some from the North that wanted a few words/verses changed. Black people adopted "Lift every voice" as their anthem. In 1931 Hoover and congress selected the Star Spangled Banner. So here we are today accepting an anthem because one party/president said so??

    Uh, the Star-Spangled Banner is the white anthem, approved by whites, sung by white confederates.
    all native americans dont have a national anthem.
    Uh, you would be wrong. Google the Sioux National Anthem for starters.
    See above...

    If that is your barometer, why should anyone stand at attention for another countries?

    At the olympics, you could have a field day disrespecting other countries because they have done nothing for you

    go for it

    You are a fukkking dumbass that has zero clue about your American history. You now want to play on words by saying ALL native Americans. That's like saying ALL US citizens. The US, just like Indians are broken up by different tribes. Do you really think the Sioux and Cheyenne tribes would unite with the Pawnee and create a universal tribal anthem? What the fukk is wrong with you?

    No need to reply because you are a fukking dummy. Keep your dumb shit to yourself. Bitch ass hoe!

    BLM is the new nazi movement

    you cant talk in public unless you agree with democrats because:

    you will be fired unless you agree

    you will be harassed



    i am fine with calling out racist people and racist cops...but really doing a disservice when you want reparations then loot/steal

    Also, I have NEVER had a problem with black people in my life and I've been surrounded by them my whole life


    I am not racist at all

    I think they do need to get involved in other sports such as swimming, golf, hockey, gymnastics, soccer, tennis

    I'm not rich though... I can't fukkin just create money to help

    It starts at home

    Gotta have an Asian American and Mexican American Anthem now as well then!! This is a diverse ethnic Country but yet some how we are slowly becoming more divided and not UNITED today..

    The Irony and stupidity of it all is mind boggling to me..

    Soon the schools will go back to white and black segregation as well.. Bathrooms and water fountains as well if we keep this up.

    History does have an UGLY way of repeating itself and it's playing out today.. Just a new twist to it.

    BLM vs ALM..
