So apparently the Giants opened their season by playing the "black anthem."

I'll go ahead and step on the third rail here.... does anyone besides me think it's weird that our country seems to be going down a path where instead of becoming more American, we're supposed to be more and more conscious of our "race"?

How is it supposed to help us as a country and as a global community to focus so much on race? Will there be a time in our future where the Olympics no longer have national anthems and instead play a tune based on the race of the individual athletes?

Didn't Martin Luther King say he dreamt of a time where his children would be "judged the content of their character and not the color of their skin"? Was he wrong?

Race is a factor in our world, we can't avoid it. Folks can disagree on the way the focus gets implemented, but the focus has to be there, can't just ignore certain problems.
Good topic though.

I hear what you’re saying, and I recognize the potential for some people to get upset.

But with that said, no one is being forced to contribute their opinion, or even read what’s being written. My hope is that some people will, however, participate and do so in a matter that is respectful to others. If we can learn about and actually understand opposing opinions, I think it will help promote solutions in the long run.

What confuses me is that the biggest icon of the civil rights movement we have in our history - Martin Luther King - in his most famous speech, advocated judging people by the content of their character and not the color of their skin. It really seems to me that we are not pursuing that objective anymore, and it’s deeply troubling to me.

No other race in our society has a special anthem dedicated to them, let alone one that is played before public events. Not Hispanics, not Asians, not Native Americans, and not whites. Where are we going with this? Are we going to adopt special anthems for each race we can identify? If so, that seems ridiculous. And if not, isn’t that unequal and unfair?
