squistion 1,657 Posted January 20 I am sure this decision by the NFL will be warmly received by all the open-minded folks on this forum. https://www.ntd.com/nfl-announces-black-national-anthem-will-be-performed-at-super-bowl_967515.html NFL Announces âBlack National Anthemâ Will Be Performed at Super Bowl The NFL has announced that the pregame entertainment for Super Bowl LVIII will include the performance of a song known colloquially as the âBlack National Anthem,â drawing mixed reactions and stirring debate on social media and beyond. Grammy-winning R&B singer Andra Day will perform âLift Every Voice and Sing,â unofficially known as the âBlack National Anthem,â ahead of the Super Bowl game at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada, on Feb. 11, the NFL said in a Jan. 18 announcement. The song, written by NAACP leader James Weldon Johnson in 1900, served as a rallying cry for black Americans during the civil rights era. Ms. Day took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to post her reaction to the NFLâs announcement. âPeace & Blessings!!! Performing the Anthem at the SuperBowl yall! Grateful! Thank You God,â she wrote. While Ms. Dayâs reaction to the NFLâs announcement was understandably positive, reactions on X to the NFLâs post were mixed. Reactions Some reactions online to news that Ms. Day would be singing the âBlack National Anthemâ at the Super Bowl were positive, with some people praising the lineup. âThatâs a good lineup! Love it,â one user commented in a post on X. Country music legend Reba McEntire will perform the national anthem at the pre-game show, while musician Post Malone will deliver a rendition of âAmerica the Beautiful.â There were plenty of negative reactions to the NFLâs decision to include âLift Every Voice and Singâ at the pre-game show, however. Some people suggested it sows division because there already is a national anthem for everyone. âNo need for a separate national anthem for the black community,â one user wrote. âDonât need a âblackâ national anthem and an âeveryone elseâ national anthem. Our national anthem is called that for a reasonâitâs for all Americans.â Another user said they found âLift Every Voice and Singâ a âbeautiful songâ but added they would rather have no anthem at all performed at the Super Bowl âthan two divided on race.â  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Real timschochet 5,232 Posted January 20 But I do disagree with the take that stuff like this divides us further. Thatâs nonsense. Actual racism, when it occurs, divides us further. School shootings divide us. Abortion divides us. Migrants, and what to do about them, divide us. The widening gap between the poor and wealthy divides us.
