Blacks singing the anthem thoughts?

[LordZuko]

Man look....

The national anthem would be dry as hell if it weren't for black people teaching white people how to sing their own Damn song.

So let that shit be dry.

im indifferent..

 

[Rozetta5tone]

Don’t care, never cared.

I get the meaning and symbolism behind the anthem but it was written for white ppl by white ppl.

This country is so diverse and evolved from that era that a new anthem is due.

There are a small few in this country keeping up racist bullshit not realizing they’ve lost the heritage and foundation they stand so firmly upon years ago.

The nation has fell victim to trolls race baiting because they have nothing left. Connecting ppl via the internet has allowed so much information about the real history America come out that being a patriot has almost become shameful.

I say let it fade with yesteryear and draft a new one.

That's all I gotta say

 

[Max.]

What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming;

Whose broad stripes and bright stars, through the perilous fight,

O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?

And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air,

Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there:

Oh, say! does that star-spangled banner yet wave

O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

On the shore, dimly seen through the mists of the deep,

Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes,

What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep,

As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?

Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,

In fully glory reflected now shines in the stream:

'Tis the star-spangled banner! Oh, long may it wave

O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave

They never even tried to teach the national anthem at my school. It wouldn't be right to make immigrants and the children of immigrants from former colonies sing the song of the tyrant

 

[fortyacres]

there is nothing wrong with it...

if i want to sing it i will sing it , if i wanna stand i will stand.

if i dont wanna sing it and sit down , i will.

and that dont make me any less or any more black than you or the next man/woman.

We had an American supply teacher she asked us to sing the national anthem before lesson everyone laughed at her. Would love to know the percentage of people in the UK that knows the national anthem

Personally I ain't kneeling, either I'm gon stand and ride with it or sit on my ass to show I ain't fucking with it (giving no energy to it).

Fuck that kneeling shit personally, I look at it as a submissive action, BUT if that's the path of resistance they chose....and in their minds/hearts THEY believe they are resisting through it, and the opps is actually accepting that as a combatant action against them I can support THEM in that but I ain't getting on my knee. Personally if I were the enemy I'd psychologically want all of them to kneel (but not sit OR stand) but I digress.....

As far as blacks singing the anthem is concerned again I wouldn't do it, but I ain't gon get bent outta shape about those who do. I don't subscribe to the anthem or accept it, it's just meaningless words strung together to me....and probably 99% of the blacks that's singing it too. They may as well mack a check up out of it. They sing better anyway.

I have no problem with getting the bag for 90 seconds of nothing. Use them like they use us. Get that bag and bring it back to the fam, still protest and build.
