I'd never heard of it (Black National Anthem). Youtube it and just let my blood boil. I would have been shouting my head off if I'd been there.
There's a good chance it will become the 'unofficial' anthem if BO is elected. I would expect it to show up early on in a lot of black churches and maybe MLK celebrations.
I think if it's pushed, the mood could get ugly. You might want to consider what might happen if BO isn't elected. If he defaults to beating the race drum late in a failing campaign, the hoopla over the loss will be more than the democrat angst after the 2000 'selection'. Watts comes to mind.
That’s not the black anthem that Obama knew.

Worth contemplating: that ugly, victi-crat, entitlement-suckled race divide festering within the Democrat party (and that's really where it is located) will hurt Democrats. IF OBAMA WON, he would be weak and divisive. Blacks who chose to respond by boycotting the Democrat party -- would lose elections to Republicans.
I'm not nearly so scared of Obama as most folks. In that, I think the article is right on. Hey, remember -- this blind panic fear response set the tone for Republican primary candidates that could "beat Hillary" because Hillary "had this thing sewn up." That assumption was based on blind fear and proved to be illusion. Obama's "popularity" is also illusion.
You watch. Democrats are going to elect McCain.
The most ironic thing is that the conservative pundits I admire most -- the ones who put it on the line with regard to conservative values and priorities -- are disproportionately Dark of Hue. Thomas Sowell, Walter Williams, Larry Elder (and Larry Elder's father, a very wise and principled individual) -- three out of a scant half-dozen of "conservative" pundits I regard as carrying MY VOICE for the most part with regard to what conservatism is, are black.
Conservatism is about respect and responsibility. That's all there is to it.

That assumption was based on blind fear, proved to be illusion, and netted the poorest Republican candidate imaginiable. Obama's "popularity" is also illusion. Will Republicans somehow repeat the same goof and respond with blind panic and fear?

Conservatism is about respect and responsibility, and the only way to achieve that with balance is to reduce government intrusion. That's all there is to it.

The line "true to our native land" is the last line of the song she sang - it refers to AFRICA!
