"We are ONE NATION, under God. Francis Scott Key's words ring true for every single American Citizen regardless of their skin color. James Weldon Johnson's 'Lift Your Voice' is a beautiful song, but it is not our National Anthem," she continued.

Francis Scott Key wrote the national anthem but the words One Nation Under God is from the Pledge of Allegiance written by Francis Bellamy.

I don’t know what the writer’s intension was but is confusing.

Lift Up Your Voice and Sing wan not part of the Fox Sports broadcast.

There was an African American singer shamelessly ripping off Ray Charles on America the Beautiful .

I’m guessing she remained seated because THERE’S NO SUCH THING AS THE BLACK NATIONAL ANTHEM.

Those words were probably first uttered by some pathetic white asshole.

“Why would ANYONE stand for a divisive, segregationist song?! “

Why would she help pay for the singing of a decisive segregationist song?

“the words One Nation Under God is from the Pledge of Allegiance written by Francis Bellamy.”

Nope. Congress added “under God” in 1954.

national anthem - noun : a song that praises a particular country and that is officially accepted as the country's song

So what country does the so-called 'black national anthem' represent???

I see no one in the picture paying attention to the song. She's also not the only one sitting down.

Further, we don't even know this was during the song.

And this is different from a segment of conservatives, how?
If you don’t agree, you’re a demonic, satanist, pedo, groomer, commie, deep staters, clown.
Same tactic, different party.

By the way, when I ran the numbers. If we took all black prisoners and welfare and snap recipients and bought them thier own country in Africa,... we could fly them there and give everyone there an income of twice the average income in Nigeria. Saving 1 Trillion dollars a year off of our budget. Heck, with that kind of savings, we could toss in hospitals and free Healthcare.

We already did, it’s called LIBERIA!

The ex-slaves that went there already turned it into a shithole.

The ex-slaves that decided to stay knew which side of their bread the WHITE MAN buttered!
