That has nothing to do with it. The end game was always to do away with the national anthem entirely.

So, it would seem that rightists are never satisfied, either.

That is just stupid, they are the ones who started this based on a lie.

As stupid as your corresponding claim, sure.

Not in any way you've demonstrated here.

This nonsense is based on the lie of systemic police racism. That police are targeting black men when it comes to unjustified killing. That is false.

They are calling it a national anthem for a reason, every news source I have read is calling it that. If you can't see what is going on I can't help you.

I find it no problem that the Black National Anthem is being sung. It's beautiful and I learned it this year when it was taught to my kindergartner's class. Frankly black Americans rightly so feel marginalized. They've been marginalized and bullied. I've witnessed a friend of mine being bullied because she was 1/2 black and 1/2 white. It hasn't gotten any better in the area she grew up in and its terrible in the surrounding. I feel as if integration was just lip service or done only because it was the law. If the decriers would sit down, read the words and listen with understanding they would realize what the significance of the song is.

No we haven't. Not on any sort of national scale by white folks. What BLM represents is a straight up lie, from every perspective of it.

I understand you do not. But there are places where it's real. I am not a follower of BLM's political positions, and it's my understanding that there are two wings. The political and the moral. Sean I posted an article written by a former police chief in Detroit. Perhaps you are like me, and you grew up with a family that taught cultural interdependence. I was sheltered. Systemic racism does exist, at least it does in certain places.
