The NFL Clown Show with the so-called "black national anthem"

Rep. Lauren Boebert railed against "wokeness" after a song known as the Black national anthem was performed live and on-field at the Super Bowl on Sunday for the very first time.

The far-right Colorado lawmaker said in a tweet that the NFL was trying to "divide" the country, in an apparent reference to actress Sheryl Lee Ralph's performance of "Lift Every Voice and Sing."

"America only has ONE NATIONAL ANTHEM," she wrote. "Why is the NFL trying to divide us by playing multiple!? Do football, not wokeness."
"Lift Every Voice and Sing" was written as a poem by NAACP leader James Weldon Johnson in 1900, and later used as a rallying cry for Black Americans during the Civil Rights era.

Its lyrics call for strength, unity, and faith in God following the abolition of slavery.

Though the song has been incorporated into Super Bowl celebrations since 2021, Ralph's performance on Sunday was the first live on-field performance of the song at the event.

It came ahead of Chris Stapleton's rendition of "The Star-Spangled Banner."

Explaining the song's history and meaning, singer Sheryl Ralph also made a reference to commenters who echoed Boebert's sentiments, saying: "I thank everybody for understanding it. Some never will, but some always will get it. God bless us all in unity."


Comment:
There is no "unity" in a race based national anthem.
There is racism and division in a race based national anthem.
These Woksters who want a separate national anthem are actually wallowing in racism, but the Progressives will never be able understand this.
The Woke movement is dying off because people have realized that it's really just more irrational, and unreasonable Left Wing hate mongering.
I dont think its dying

The racial division in America is getting stronger
 
So object to it being called a black national anthem, but celebrate the song. If republicans focused on the message of the song and how that message is being destroyed by liberal policies. Republicans need to stop getting played by democrats.

No you don’t argue with traitors. When does it stop? Do we have a Chinese anthem? Do we have a Muslim anthem??
Stop you’re nonsense do you want America to look like Ethiopia with thousands of different cultures starving to death
 
Republicans should embrace the song and its message celebrating how faith in God gives us the strength to triumph over oppression and the freedom and liberty found only in the USA. They should encourage the song to be played more and that we not make the song one that separates us but brings us together.
Liberal race mongers are walking backwards
 
Because it’s tribalism, no American will accept, sure a few like you, I didn’t watch the game yesterday because of it.
We must unite this country, it change it. Our culture heritage is sacred it should be protected. Now if you want to move to a all black neighborhood, see what it’s like and want to sing for them let me know

Democrats leave God out of The Pledge of Allegiance, republicans should celebrate this song and say we should all rejoice in any song that leads democrats and our country back to the light of God.
Republicans loss when they object to the song.

Like white SJW types care about what actually is in the song, as long as they can use it to further divide us.
 
It's being sold as something for black Americans to want to use to replace the existing National Anthem.

It's the packaging that's the issue, typical divisive woke bullshit dressed up as something noble.

Who has EVER said it should replace the National Anthem?

Its a failure of a racist white America that seeks to exclude black folks.

Where have I said to define the song as an anthem? I agree it should be used as a unifying song no different then how songs like Proud to be an American are celebrated.

So any nationality that has God and their national anthem we must sing it before the Super Bowl?
 
It is an inspiring song…..why would anyone object?

Oh yea…..we are talking about Conservatives that get enraged at anything that honors blacks
the objection is that it divides the country, divide and conquer works and you fools are helping those who are dedicated to destroying this country.
 
I put this in the same category as Kwansa, made up things to divide the country and destroy it. and you on the left are helping. you are tools and too dumb to know it.
 
We are letting them use the song to divide us.
We have a song enough of this, you have to much time on your hands. Put a poor white childs shoes on. Searching for an identity, a common culture having to decide what side they are on.. we have to stop this nonsense to protect the poor and vulnerable
