What’s your point, that was a different world and her rendition of God Bless America is a beautiful song.

1916 was a different world too and we don't kick back and watch "Birth of a Nation." 1946 was a different world and we don't take the kids to go see "Song of the South." It's a different world NOW too, and the standards of now are not tied by the standards of yesterday.

Exactly those are relics of a different time and are left in the past.Her rendition should then have the ability to separate its self and to a stand alone.Answer me how a person who more currently like Ice Cube can move beyond his musical work but she can not?That’s the hypocrisy

Because she's dead, dude. She's not growing as an artist right nor does she have the ability to repudiate her racism now. Guess that's unfair to her but take that up with the concept of mortality.

See, the fact that she's dead is, to me, a reason not to go after one song over a different song just to teach her a lesson.
