Super Bowl 55 kicked off Sunday with recording artist Alicia Keys singing the so-called black national anthem, “Lift Ev’ry Voice and Sing,” along with a poem.
Hitmaker Alicia Keys was tasked with a virtual performance of the 121-year-old spiritual song that has come to be known alternately as the “black national anthem” after being introduced in 1899 for Abraham Lincoln’s birthday. The poem read in 1899 was set to music in 1900.

I applaud you for your courage in making that stand!
Did anyone notice, or have you had to inform others via FB postings?
Meanwhile, your advertising dollar is helping to support BLM.

For one of the first times in my adult life I did NOT watch the Stupor Bowel.
OK..I did check out the commercials and Alcia Keyes after the fact.
But I really do NOT feel culturally deprived, unenlightened, or otherwise reduced to the lowest caste.
I’ve seen 2 car commercials w /2 different white husband/black wife couples. With bi-racial kids (the goofy-looking redhead boy) sitting in back seat.
What’s funny is the black women have “I wouldn’t be caught dead with these white jerks in real life” expressions on their faces. Those commercials are just BAD!
Most of the spineless Trump supporters I know are watching. Last summer they said they would never watch again.
I didn’t watch it.
If you are conservative, if you believe in this country, why would any self avowed conservatives stoop so low as to support the NFL's racist anti-white male, anti conservative, anti-American product? You may as well throw in the towel, join a gay Episcopal church and learn the words to the new National Anthem.
Some nation. I guess national anthems are like genders.
The corrupt refs did their job, but they cannot make the game cover a point spread and maintain the illusion of an honest game simultaneously.
“Price...amazing guitarist.”
All my metalhead buddies in the 80s had a cassette copy of “Purple Rain” for the guitar solo at the end of “Let’s Go Crazy”
I fired FB and Twitter when they booted President Trump.
Disregards,
FU NFL........I will NEVER watch again or spend one penny on anything NFL
YOU ARE DEAD TO ME!!!
I was a 13E and then in the first group of 13F, because I was in the forward observer section’s “Reconnaissance Sergeant” slot. It was a hard strip E-5 versus being a Spec 5 in the FDC section. I had been on the 13E E-6 list but one needed over 600 points and I was just sort of that. After 13F was listed as a new MOS and I was on the battalion’s list of new 13Fs I got my rocker because 13F E-6 points dropped to 450. That was in the summer of 1978.
What ‘nation’ are they in? ...... Wakanda?......................
My boycott list on clipboard is growing.
