Matt Gaetz's Race-Baiting Is In Big-Game Form Before Super Bowl
Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) declared Sunday he wasn’t going to watch the Super Bowl over the performing of the “Black National Anthem” before the game. The song, “Lift Every Voice and Sing” is often called the Black national anthem. The words were penned by NAACP leader James Weldon Johnson in 1900 and set to music by his brother, John Rosamond Johnson. The song was later used for inspiration among civil rights activists in the 1950s and ’60s.
