Title: California NAACP seeks to remove 'Star-Spangled Banner' as national anthem

California’s NAACP is pushing for state lawmakers to support a campaign to remove “The Star Spangled Banner” as the country’s national anthem.

The group says the song, which has been a point of controversy in the NFL, is “one of the most racist, pro-slavery, anti-black songs in the American lexicon,” The Sacramento Bee reported Tuesday.

The NAACP’s California chapter last week reportedly sent out two resolutions, which had been passed at the organizations state conference last month.

NAACP WARNS AFRICAN-AMERICANS ABOUT FLYING ON AMERICAN AIRLINES

One of the resolutions was to support the removal of the anthem, while the other is an effort to get the NFL to fit former player Colin Kaepernick onto a team.

Kaepernick, a former San Francisco 49ers quarterback, was the first NFL player to kneel during the national anthem, which is typically played before games.

“We owe a lot of it to Kaepernick,” California NAACP President Alice Huffman told The Sacramento Bee. “I think all this controversy about the knee will go away once the song is removed.”

Huffman said she wrote the resolutions after President Trump said NFL owners should fire players who protest during the anthem.

“Trump got in the middle of it. He blew it out of proportion,” Huffman said of the president, who labeled players who kneel as a "son of a b---h" during an Alabama rally.

The U.S. Congress should adopt a new national anthem that’s not “another song that disenfranchises part of the American population,” Huffman said.

“The Star-Spangled Banner” has been the nation’s anthem since 1931, when President Herbert Hoover signed a congressional act making it the song of the United States.

Not surprised.

Pro football and basketball has become the Negroes game and the perceived road leading to riches. They'll have to make it without any help from me. Have the American people had enough? Just look at the results results of yesterday’s elections! Sad!

Uh-huh. So let's replace it with something that brings us all together.

About time. I recommend this as a replacement. Maybe it would make all the NFL protests come to an end as they play it loud and clear through the stadiums:

Well, OK. Rather, we should replace the NAACP, and all the players of the NFL, NBA, and all Chimp's ! Deport all of them, and replace them with real Americans !! That would be a big step to MAGA !!!

It's the third verse.

The problem here is that the public is almost completely unaware there are 4 verses in the anthem. No one ever sings more than the first verse.

It's the third verse.

It's bloody, but it's not racist. They're talking about the British Army:

And where is that band who so vauntingly swore that the havoc of war and the battle's confusion, a home and a country shall leave us no more? Their blood hath washed out their foul footsteps pollution. No refuge could save the hireling and slave from the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave. And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave o'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.

That isn't racist. "That band", "the hireling and slave" - those are the British Army.

Where is the racism in any of that? It's not there.

That isn't racist. "That band", "the hireling and slave" - those are the British Army.

Francis Scott Key had been an officer in a militia that a few weeks earlier had been defeated by those runaway slaves wearing the British uniform.

Key had a grudge clearly.

And a "hireling" in the sense of the anthem is a soldier who receives wages, IOW like our own modern military. Colonial militias were not paid; this was a republican ideal of the Revolution, that militias would rise to defend the former colonies, primarily against Britain's attempt to reclaim her colonies exactly as happened in the war of 1812.

Certainly, there is derision in the third verse toward paid soldiers and toward runaway slaves who chose to fight against their oppressors and the slave regime of the early republic.

the slave regime of the early republic.

Our Gulag period, washed away by the purifying flame circa 1861-1865.

How about "Dixie"?

In the entire history of the world,the only nations that had to build walls to keep their own citizens from leaving were those with leftist governments.

Dixie would be great!
