Just to be sure I was not misunderstood in starting this thread... I have little or no issue with the words.
The issue is that someone would so disrespect others as to make a political and racial statement when afforded the opportunity to sing the National Anthem.
Agenda or ignorance it matters not. Things like this that hurt the cause she hopes to promote (if it includes good PR for the black community).
I feel the same way about it as I would if she had sung CLC's "I'm a Pentecostal"
