NBA Hall of Famer Isiah Thomas criticized the NFL’s decision to play the Black national anthem before the 2021 season-opening and radio host Jason Whitlock told "Fox & Friends Weekend" that he agrees there’s a conversation to be had.
Whitlock spoke with Thomas in an interview Thursday, as part of the "Fearless with Jason Whitlock" podcast, where the former basketball star suggested that playing both national anthems is only dividing the country instead of unifying it.
"He was pointing out the obvious that I think we all agree on," Whitlock said. "You can’t have two national anthems if you want to be one country."

There is one national anthem. Full stop.
If those that would divide cannot accept that, they can leave and go somewhere else. This is America - not Africa-America. Accept that, or move on.

Democrats have embraced the strategy of divide and conquer and it is effective. Throw in that mix grievance politics and democrats have exactly the weapon they need to destroy us. What they have done in the name of equality and diversity has been an abject failure for all Americans. Democrats don’t care about the chaos they are bringing as long as they can be the ruling class over the warring factions they create. Democrats are evil personified.

None of our military folks fought and died for the "Negro" National Hymn (later became known as the Black National Anthem), and they weren't singing it on the battlefield either. The song was meant to be one of encouragement and advancement. "Sing a song full of the faith that the dark past has taught us. Sing a song full of the hope that the present has brought us." I'm sure James Weldon Johnson and collaborators meant it to be a hopeful song, but it is being improperly used, as usual, by leftists who pervert and destroy everything they touch. They've turned it into a song about suffrage.
It was nice to hear from Isaiah Thomas, and I'm glad he was willing to speak out; it didn't seem like he was new to speaking out either.

If we're going to start picking our own national anthems, I want Dixie back!

There is one National Anthem. Everything else is just a song.

Phrases when heard on tv that make my remote control go "click". Tell us your story. Talk to us about your journey. Let's have that conversation.

The only thing the so called Black National Anthem does is angers real Americans.

The point is simple...take a look at NFL rosters. Black players make up the preponderance of NFL rosters. Few are Harvard graduates. Fewer come from upper-class backgrounds. The idea is for the NFL to keep The Community quiet, if not happy, recognizing "achievement" and respecting dignity. Last thing the NFL needs is any racial disharmony breaking into the open. And the "woke" networks are happy to play along. The NBA will likely adopt the same...it's coming.

We have a super race of people perpetuated by dumb 'woke' whites to promote social justice which is a hoax in the minds of stupid people. CRT by a woke military fat headed general is a good example while he looks for 'white rage' in the military.
Blacks have their sports so let them have a black anthem I'll be the one taking a knee or turning by back when it's played. I want some social justice too.

What nation is the Black National Anthem representing? Do they consider these people members of a tribe like the Native American reservations?

After typing an email and then cleaning up my language regarding the black anthem, I tried to find an email address that would result in anyone at the NFL home office reading my words. I didn't spend much time looking so I may have missed it. I came away with the feeling that the NFL lords in the high tower are not really interested in what us peasants have to say.

What if all the white players took a knee when they played that “anthem”? The screams of outrage from the left and media would be deafening.

It's interesting. Long ago, Whitlock was a fairly typical sports writer in KC, wrote for the KC (Red) Star. I stopped getting that propaganda rag in the early 90s, after one too many massive lies about people I knew personally.
Whitlock went on to bigger things, it seems, and for a long time, the few times I read his stuff (I'm not much for stick and ball sports) he seemed pretty lefty, uninteresting. Then, a few years ago, I ran across a commentary from Whitlock that was pretty darned sensible, I forget the topic but I noted "That seems like a change". I was surprised.
It would seem that Mr. Whitlock is possibly an honest journalist, or perhaps even has become more conservative and sensible in his old age. He's right on this one.

I look forward to being at an event where the so-called black national anthem is played so I can take a knee.

There is one National Anthem- The American Anthem. What is called the black national anthem is just another way to divide our country.
