Back in my day this would have been handled during a Chief Petty Officer Disciplinary Review Board (CPO DRB) and would have never needed to head to XOI or mast...In my day, DRBs cured A LOT of stupid and didn’t ruin the Sailors career...but that was a different time apparently.
I’m quite sure that this young lady would most definitely have benefit from a good old fashioned DRB, I’m positive!!!
He did, and the reference is not to black slavery, but to the impressment of American sailors into the British Navy. Key is talking in the third verse about how the British swore to take back the US, but the "hireling and slave," meaning the enlisted men and the impressed men of the British Navy, had to experience "the terror of flight," as they left Baltimore harbor in particular, and were going to lose the war in general.
Brig. Six months.
Nope. Straight to Court Martial. She blatantly broke the law.

Start with Art.- 134 and build from there.
It ends with a Big Chicken Dinner.
Somebody needs to splain to her that she’s in the military not the NFL.
John Kerry had his dishonorable discharge fixed byJimmy Carter. The system is not prepared to deal with that any more than those black West Point cadets who gave us the fist.
I wish we’d use the 4th stanza instead of the first.
It does not "enshrine" slavery. It alludes obliquely to the fact that Hessian mercenaries ("hirelings") and escaped slaves who had been promised freedom in exchange for fighting against American independence ("slaves") would rue the day.

Sailor "identifies as African American". So, if she's black, you're right.
Back in the day, this wouldn't have been even imagined.
Snopes? Really??
White bread, of course.
Smells like a plant. Keep her training to the bare minimum. Station her in some forsaken hell hole but never on a ship. It would be very scary what she could pull aboard a ship. Keep her training to the bare minimum. Never give her a promotion. Never ever let her anywhere around intel. Assign her to latrine duty only. When she gets out, put her on the no fly list and keep an eye on her for life.
New tagline...
...she took a seat and raised her fist in the air, a symbol of the Black Power movement.
Snip
The sailor said she will not stand for the anthem “until this country shows they’ve got my back as a black woman.”
IMHO, the blacks of today don’t have a leg to stand on, because of the hundreds of thousands of Union Civil War dead and wounded....and that none of these people have ever been slaves.
Dishonorable discharge and no bennies.
Court martial offense plus insubordination and disobedience.
3 meals a day on just bead an water will sure bind up your #6.
