“Why Is The NFL Trying To Divide Us?”: ‘Black National Anthem’ Performed At Super Bowl

The NFL kicked off the Super Bowl with a performance of a song that has been dubbed the ‘black national anthem,’ before featuring the actual U.S. anthem, causing anger among detractors who charged that the decision was divisive.

The song, ‘Lift Every Voice and Sing,’ performed by Sheryl Lee Ralph, was adopted by the NAACP in 1917, and has since been known as a ‘black national anthem’.

The NFL has been playing the song before games since 2020 after the BLM riots in the wake of the George Floyd incident.

This is the third consecutive time it has been played at the Super Bowl, but the first time it has been performed live.

Only your patronage to our store is what keeps this beacon of truth lit in the controlled-narrative darkness.

Many criticised the move, pointing out that having two anthems sends a message that Americans are separated by race.

Spoiler Alert: The people pushing the “Black National Anthem” aren’t trying to unify the country, they’re trying to divide it.

America only has ONE NATIONAL ANTHEM.

Why is the NFL trying to divide us by playing multiple!?

Do football, not wokeness.

Starting Super Bowl with the black national anthem and starting Super Bowl week honoring Mahomes and Hurts as black QBs is an odd way to build a color-blind society, the NFL’s purported mission. https://t.co/Xy1re2KBGI

The @NFL is going to play a black national anthem before the Super Bowl. Seems racist and divisive.

The only thing that can unite America forever is creating separate national anthems for each different ethnic groups

I demand each one be played before every game

Especially the Superbowl

America has ONE national anthem.

The Black National Anthem is the Star Spangled Banner.

The White National Anthem is the Star Spangled Banner.

The Mixed National Anthem is the Star Spangled Banner.

If you live in the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, your National Anthem is the Star Spangled Banner.#SuperBowl

If you feel like you need a different National Anthem, you can move to a different country!

Simple, really.

The @NFL is making a huge mistake, in my humble opinion, by having “Lift Every Voice and Sing,” what has traditionally been referred to as the “black national anthem,” sung at the #SuperBowl. What more divisive message could be sent than to suggest we’re a nation of two anthems.

“Black National Anthem” is an oxymoron. We are ONE nation under God. If you think otherwise, you’re in support of segregation. It’s that simple.
