Almost stopped watching after one of them said there's no black national anthem in Africa. No shit...every country has their own.

Do agree with them that this is quick pandering by the NFL. Play it every week if they are serious...and also hire back Kap.

So, they are fine with the fact black people 100 years ago declared it the black national anthem...but mad people now still call it that?

After listening to their BLM thoughts at the end...feel like they are more upset with the song being associated with BLM than it being called the Black National Anthem.

Anyway, for the Hodgetwins fans, do they make non political videos anymore?

A couple of points on your post....

1) You state that every country has their own national anthem. The United States does too (do a web search on duckduckgo for "The Star Spangled Banner"...you might have heard of it). Why do blacks need their separate anthem? Isn't that divisive? Do they want separate bathrooms and water fountains too? Oh wait...we've already been there.

2) You state that the NFL should hire back Kap. Why? Because of the color of his skin or because of some exceptional talent that he has? If your answer is the latter, please lay out a convincing argument.

Many Black people never felt the Star Spangled Banner represented them. Which is why they had their own national anthem YEARS before the Star Spangled Banner was made the national anthem by one party. The anthem is very negative and promotes war. America the Beautiful was probably more appropriate.

Hey Tat,

1. Because when they they decided to declare it the Black National Anthem, they didn't feel like America represented them. If blacks Americans were treated like white Americans 100 years ago...there wouldn't be a black national anthem. Its the same thing with HBCUs.

2. Because he was the one who got blackballed by the NFL for bringing up issues they now supposedly support.

**funnyb25** · 07-05-20, 08:46 AM

Same thing as Juneteenth. No one gave a shit about it until this year, if it ever REALLY existed before this year anyways...

**pavyracer** · 07-05-20, 09:15 AM

The Latinos don't get respresented by the national anthem but they don't ask for their own version. You can change the national anthem for the whole country if this is the best solution but you can't have separate anthems for each group.

Maybe have Taylor Swift, Kanye West and Ariana Grande come up with a new anthem that will not offend any other group.

**DwightShrute** · 07-05-20, 10:05 AM

Q: What happens if someone takes a knee during the black national anthem?

Q: do you think we should have an anthem for every race or nationality? Maybe the Latinos want one? Women probably will feel left out? Maybe the gay community should have their own song as well? It could be a 6 hour event these games. Or, maybe we just have one anthem for everyone and leave politics and protesting out of it? Or not even have an anthem?

Appropriate to who? YOU? Have you asked others? Study your history. In the 1920s there was much controversy over what should be our national anthem. Many northerner's wanted the Battle Hymn of the Republic. Many others wanted America the Beautiful. Southerners sided with the Star-Spangled Banner along with some from the North that wanted a few words/verses changed. Black people adopted "Lift every voice" as their anthem. In 1931 Hoover and congress selected the Star Spangled Banner. So here we are today accepting an anthem because one party/president said so??

Hey, you asked....right?? Next time don't ask if you don't want to hear and unfavorable(to you) reply. And, since you have taken to name calling, I have something for you............Scientists say the earth is made up of neutrons, protons and electrons. They for got to mention morons (like you.)

Lol.. I think not!!!

I loved this 4th of July!!! It was brilliant where I live last night..

**KnuckleHeadz** · 07-05-20, 11:09 PM

Same here.. was like Baghdad and was non stop from 4pm till 3am

**Okieirish** · 07-05-20, 11:11 PM

It will be funny when some kneel to the Black National Anthem and stand for the countries ! NFL ratings are set to plunge. This has gotten so out of hand. Not really sure I care to even watch, after decades of being a fan.

Now you’re starting to get it.

Why do you think all the divisiveness is happening right now?

The videos were pretty spectacular. Unfortunately, it looks like some fires broke out.
