The NFL plans to play the 'black national anthem' before every game in the first week of the 2021 season, according to a new report.
Lift Ev'ry Voice And Sing, will be performed before The Star-Spangled Banner to kick off each game in Week 1, beginning with the September 10 season opener when the Kansas City Chiefs host the Houston Texans.
A source familiar with the league's discussions confirmed the controversial change to ESPN's The Undefeated on Thursday.
The NFL, in collaboration with the NFL Players Association, is also considering featuring names of victims who suffered police brutality on uniforms, helmets or patches on jerseys, the source said.
The decision comes as the league hopes to demonstrate 'a genuine commitment to the public, players and coaches and that player voices continue to be heard,' the source wrote in a text message.
'This is key to educating fans, and becoming a prominent voice in the fight to end racism,' they said. ...
There you have it, sports fans ... the NFL isn't about playing football games to entertain football fans ... aw, hell no ... it's all about EDUCATING fans (i.e., indoctrinating the "great unwashed" with politically correct, "woke" ideology). Now, don't you feel better about turning on your television set to get your poor lil' benighted self tutored by your "betters" at the NFL, eh?
