Perhaps "God Bless America" would be a good Black National Anthem."

I still see our American National Anthem as being EVERYONE's song. I really feel that someone is insulting Blacks by telling them that they get to have their own Black National Anthem. Kind of hard to expect anyone of any other color being asked to stand for a segregated Anthem. Next thing you know, folks will start asking for ALL Black schools. I am embarrassed for the NFL players to have to go out on the field knowing that Black players are supposed to smile as they are condescended to by rich white owners that do not consider them inclusive to the National Anthem. Guess what goes around, comes around as they say. They can thank CK for his making Sports a political statement.
