Separate But Equal

[PurpnGold]

@Samm

“Separate but equal” may have originated from segregation, but there is no hint of segregation in the Star Spangled Banner, so when you speak of Lift Every Voice as a “separate but equal” anthem, you are living in the past as well as being delusional.

Who described this anthem issue as “separate but equal”? Was it me or the OP? I’ll give you time.

Stop associating that phrase being attached to lift every voice, to me.

Thanks.

@Samm

And, by the way, “separate but equal” also is used to refer to Title IX, which has absolutely nothing to do with Plessy v. Ferguson. History chops my ass.

Oh really? Show me

@Samm

Technically you are correct, but the context @PurpnGold is using is Plessy v. Ferguson, which is entirely about race. There is no racial aspect in the National Anthem except within the minds of those who would impose a separate “black anthem” upon us.

From the OP you failed to read

“Purp made it about race”

The Black national anthem is reportedly set to return before NFL games for good starting in 2021.

“Lift Every Voice and Sing” was played before the start of Week 1 games during the 2020 NFL season, and Front Office Sports reported Wednesday the NFL plans to make it a “prominent part of big league events.”

It will.

Right on!

And then?

In 20 years, majority of people will be classified as mixed race. B + W, A + W, B + A, etc.

Race will be less of an issue. So I dream.

So, by focusing on and elevating racial differences, you believe race will become less of an issue?

Astounding.

[Samm]

Hey, you’re the history expert. You already know all about separate but equal under Title IX.

[WuWei]

Whoever calls it “the black national anthem” is making it about race. The NFL is making it about race. It is about race.

My thread title is Separate but Equal. Throughout the thread it was very clear that it had nothing to do with segregation…

Until you attempted to make it about segregation. That is the point being made here.

[WuWei]

And for the record, separate was never equal.

We’re not the ones calling it the black national anthem.

[Samm]

Yes … Purp made it about race. No doubt about it. Everything is about race to Purp.

You make a claim, without evidence, and expect me to back you up?

[PurpnGold]

@Samm

Yes … Purp made it about race. No doubt about it. Everything is about race to Purp.

Did I write the OP?

[Samm]

Are you saying that you know nothing about Title IX? Perhaps you should do a bit of research on it so you can speak about it knowledgeably.

Whoever calls it “the black national anthem” is making it about race. The NFL is making it about race. It is about race.

Its very origin and words make it very clear that it is an uplifting anthem about an appeal for the liberty of black Americans. It isn’t called the black national anthem by accident.

This all plays into the LIBs obsession with indoctrinating our young and reeducating us adults to see things as they do. For our young we have CRT and for us adults we have Social Justice messaging. And all of this has racial undertones. We white Americans must be made to see the evil we have inflicted on blacks in this country.

That’s not what I am saying at all…

I’m not doing your work for you. You made a claim… I am simply asking for you to back it up.

At this point I’m starting to think you can’t back it up…

[PurpnGold]

@Samm

Did you expound on the OP?

Absolutely. I expounded on a post about race.

You are just choosing not to read today, huh?

[peek-a-boo]

@PurpnGold

Absolutely. I expounded on a post about race.

My OP was pointing out what the NFL is doing. That stems from WOKE LIB social justice messaging about racism. The black national anthem is front and center. Black athletes were catalysts with their disrespect of our National Anthem and LIBs couldn’t wait to exploit that as an opportunity to reeducate us white Americans.

WOKE LIBs are the ones playing the race card. I’m simply pointing it out in my OP and inviting forum members to respond.

I don’t need to do the work. I already know the answer.

I understand what you did… but @Samm apparently doesn’t know you started this thread and mentioned race in the OP (I know it was not specifically you but you brought in another link that mentioned race)
