But if we just pull our pants up and act better then they'll treat us differently.

I think the white establishment wants black people to sing that song because it shows complete survatude and allegence to them if u sing a song that degrades your culture and people. They know the history to it, before Kaep, 'most people, including me, did not.Why do black folks want to sing that damn song anyway?

Like clockwork, here y'all go with a divisive red herring.
The song wasn't considered racist until a few months ago. On the flipside, most aspiring singers grow up dreaming of singing the anthem before a sporting event thanks to iconic performances from the likes of Whitney Houston and Marvin Gaye. Plus, this is opening night, it's quite possible she was booked before these protests ever popped off.
Why she chose to accept this engagement is irrelevant, the actions of the 76ers is what matters. They're blatantly saying "fukk your issues, we care more about not offending the racists who may be bothered by you simply proclaiming you matter"...let's focus on that.

It wasn't considered racist because people didn't take the time to actually research the song, but now that the truth is out why should we still support it? You can no longer claim ignorance once the truth is exposed.Like clockwork, here y'all go with a divisive red herring.
