- Juneteenth was celebrated weeks ago, let’s do it again!
- Co-opt Independence Day, Memorial Day, Columbus Day, Thanksgiving, hell Christ was born on the African continent . . .
We propose a new unifying statue, to be the centerpiece of the Capitol Rotunda, it won’t have a name other than perhaps SAVIOR but this hero singlehandedly saved the Republic. No-one else had the courage to do what needed to be done that day. Don’t you know this man bravely saved the Republic from an exceedingly violent insurrection armed with signs and flags led by a 5’2″ 100 pound female (she be dead now, a message to all ). It was like Tiananmen Square except he was the tank and he actually fired his weapon at the unarmed protestor.
The singer and actress will perform the song ‘Lift Every Voice and Sing’ while hosting PBS’s 41st ‘A Capitol Fourth’ annual celebration, which airs Sunday
The song was first written as a poem in 1900 by NAACP leader James Weldon Johnson and has long held the nickname as the ‘Black National Anthem’
Williams said her performance of the song will not only honor the nation’s traditional Independence Day, but also Juneteenth
The song is not replacing the US National Anthem, with singer Renée Fleming opening the show with a special performance of the ‘Star-Spangled Banner’
Several other singers and musicians will also be performing different songs
The inclusion of the ‘Black National Anthem’ sparked controversy on Twitter
Some called it ‘divisive’ and a contradiction of efforts to create ‘unity’

WAIT A MINUTE!
What about the LGBTQ Anthem (I don’t know what it is but surely the “movement” has one.)
And, while we’re at it…that is, ‘honoring’ every group and sub group which has an agenda…who will sing the “beautiful” , “My Country ’Tis of Antifa”.
And, to bring us all together as ‘one nation under Biden’, when will the courageous Capitol police officer who put down the “Jan. 6 Insurrection” by killing the ‘dangerous revolutionary”, Ashli Babbitt, be honored….whoever he is? dlh
