The National Anthem wasn’t written with Black folks in mind just like “We the People”
NFL players kneel for the National Anthem not to "disrespect america" but to peacefully protest for rights in a country in which black folks have never had any. People need to stop acting like it's a malicious attack on the country.

No it wasn’t and lots of people don’t know about a certain verse being taken out....

It really hasn’t been removed they just don’t sing that verse in front of black folks

Good Afternoon it’s a beautiful day...

The next Black artist who preforms the National Anthem for the NFL should sing all the verses. That would be the end of the National Anthem at all sporting events.

I always thought that everyone stands for the flag as a symbol of unity, or the promise of unity. It is one of the few times we all come together,of every race, to do something as one. The same. United. Awesome. Powerful.

They made it about the flag when it never was. Turn the conversation....truth is....was always about police brutality. Which continues to happen to humans with darker skin.

It’s easier for them to think that way. Then they don’t have to deal with their own racist beliefs!

When and where did you serve Shaun ? What unit were you in ? How many friends did you send home with that flag draped over them ? There are rules for respecting the flag. For someone looking for respect, you're not showing much.
