Wow. I knew she sang at MLK funeral and Obama inauguration, but I didn’t know she sang at this convention. It was a big one! She is *everywhere* on the timeline of our lives!

1968 still wasn't the best year of our times, with the deaths of MLK and RFK. They, like the
#QueenofSoul, herself are missed dearly. Now she can sing up to them, after it's been so long. God Bless#ArethaFranklin -
not to mention the chaos and brutality at the convention itself

And, ESPN would not have shown it!

-
You're right, ESPN would not have aired it. That's because ESPN is a sports network and political conventions have nothing to do with sports. It doesn't matter if they open with the national anthem or Lady Gaga's "Born This Way."
