NFL to play Black National Anthem before every NFL game in 2021

[DigitalDrifter]

Why not? - It's beautiful!

Point went right over your head.

It doesn't matter what the song is, how beautiful it is, what the lyrics are.

I was born in america. 90 us years ago. My dna is swedish. So I am a swedish american. I do not need the swedish nor american anthem played before a game. Why do we need any anthems anyway? No need whatsoever.

I don't disagree, but again, that's not the point.

More than 75 colleges host blacks-only graduation ceremonies

Graduation used to be for coming together as a class one last time to celebrate academic accomplishments, but today there’s a growing trend for segregated celebrations highlighting race and ethnicity.

Apparently Supermadmutha has had his head firmly up his ass for a # of years now.

Ladies and gentlemen, if you are white,
Please rise and remove your hats for the singing of our white National Anthem”.

Sadly, many black people understand and want no part of the black separatist culture

We must be careful not to throw the baby out with the bathwater

What is the black separatist culture?

I agree 100 percent. My point is the absurdity of this bullshit separatist culture movement. It only serves to divide US. Otherwise, let’s make sure the Irish American National Anthem is sung. While we are at it, need to have the Japanese American National Anthem as well. Much like the Democrats kept Blacks in chains, Democrats rounded up and locked up the Japanese in camps; though, that is more eerily similar to what was going on in Germany at the time with their minorities.

How many of those Democrats were relatives of yours? See the South is almost 85% Republican today, so who were they related to? Many Republicans in the South today were Democrats in the 60s and 70s.

None of those Democrats were my relatives. Those Democrats and their legacy would not dream of letting myself nor my wife in their party. See both my and myself are brown people and are relatives were called wetbacks by those Democrats. Today, to those Democrats, the color of our skin only matters when our vote is cast for them. That's it.

 

[Superbadbrutha]

You asked for an example and I gave it to you

now you want to play Twenty Questions instead of Go Fetch

but I’m not playing

Actually I asked for EXAMPLES

Well then I am not talking to you.

If that is the case then how did you become a Republican? Because those are the folks who call you and your wife that today. What has the Republican Party done for Hispanics in the last 40yrs? I'll tell you, not a damn thing.

I'm not watching any nfl games until it's confirmed they stopped doing it.

I like football, but I enjoy dozens and dozens of other things. I don't NEED to watch football.

Well here we are folks. So I presume there will also be separate water fountains and rest rooms. Unfuckinbelievable.
Welcome to the new segregation.

Playing a song for black people at the beginning of every game is not at all intended as a fight against racism; it's simply appeasing racists.

After the knealings of a few years ago, and faux-conservatives were all upset about it, but almost none quit watching the NFL. I didn't watch before so I didn't have to quit watching but I certainly would never watch now.

Just like faux-conservatives still having Facebook and Twitter accounts, any self-proclaimed conservative that watches any professional sport today is not actually a conservative. They don't believe in the preservation of our nation enough to give up on their silly social media addiction.

Your DNA is not Swedish. There's no such thing. DNA evolution does happen regionally but it knows nothing of modern borders. You're an American. If you don't like it here, you can always move to Sweden, though.

When did black folks say that Tipsyhag?

I mean, that is, pretty much the line of all Black Nationalists going back to Marcus Garvey. But is a generalization.

The bigots on this site like to think that the black community is of one mind, as if the white community is.


Garvey received condemnation for such views from Du Bois, so. . . this is, IMO, just an excuse for Anti-Americanism and hatred.

On top of that, culturally, Garvey wasn't really American, IMO. Being born in Jamaica, and having been in Britain so long. . . I am suspect that he was as much a British agent as a black nationalist.


But. . . there really is no denying the HUGE following, historically, of Garvey here in the states.

I appreciate the question. Here is how and why. First, we are not Republicans. We are Fiscal Conservatives, Social Libertarians who vote Republican most of the time. Many Latinos want to work, they want opportunity, they are small business owners and entrepreneurs who want lower regulations, lower taxes from the Government.

The Republican Party does more for small businesses than Democrats. Democrats treat small businesses as the big corporations they demonize. Democrats have no use for small business and entrepreneurship.

From this lens, you can now see that Latinos care more about their livelihoods and economic opportunity than being called a slur. Over the last 40 years, what have Democrats done for small businesses and entrepreneurs? Not a damn thing.

but almost none quit watching the NFL

You must live under a rock. Ratings plummeted and some stadiums saw drastic drops in revenue.

.....and why was Garvey saying the things he said?

Republicans do more for corporate Americans than they do the everyday American.

A study from the National Bureau of Economic Research found that Democratic presidents since World War II have performed much better than Republicans. On average, Democratic presidents grew the economy 4.4% each year versus 2.5% for Republicans.

A study by Princeton University economists Alan Blinder and Mark Watson found that the economy performs better when the president is a Democrat. They report that “by many measures, the performance gap is startlingly large.” Between Truman and Obama, growth was 1.8% higher under Democrats than Republicans.

Democrat or Republican: Which Political Party Has Grown the Economy More?

Democrats and Republicans have different views on the economy and different ideas about what's best for growth. Which party has boosted the economy more?

And you got it

You post one example about college graduations which doesn't include the majority of black folks in this country.

You haven't answered my question.
Were you truly unaware of the racially segregated graduation ceremonies?
