    I agree that his protest wasn't about the lyrics. It's about the value of the lives of people of color in America.

        but his protest also moved many people to re-examine the song itself.

        No it didn't. His protest served as fodder to try and divide people by racial lines.

        Sure, until he did that, people in U.S. weren't divided by racial lines, right. No racial division you've ever noticed!

        As a person of no color I'm interested why you don't care about all the dead Americans in cities run by Democrat for decades

        Being good at singing it and understanding what it represents are two different things.

        people of color don't value people of color's lives in america. It starts by looking in the mirror.

        They determine how value their lives. Pointing a weapon at a police officer is a good sign you don't care.

        why further a divide John? I don't see people of color valuing other people of color.

        And the flag represents how we value our fallen, that flag draping their caskets.
