The NFL plans to make “Lift Every Voice and Sing” often referred to as the Black national anthem a permanent fixture before all major league events this coming season, according to reports.
Great!
You know why.
Front Office Sports, which broke the story, also reported Wednesday that the NFL will have social-justice messaging on fields and on helmets. This is also a good thing. It’s too bad the NBA didn’t continue putting social-justice messages on jerseys, like they did in the bubble at the end of last season.
“Lift Every Voice and Sing” was played before the start of Week 1 games during the 2020 season, and at Super Bowl LV. It’s been played at other sporting events.
