The pregame festivities for the Super Bowl will feature the Black national anthem on Sunday but it stirred debate on social media before the players took the field.
But it was the inclusion of"Lift Every Voice and Sing" that had NFL fans talking early Sunday."Lift Every Voice and Sing" was played before Super Bowl LV and the draft in April 2021. Mary Mary sang it ahead of last year’s Super Bowl between the Los Angeles Rams and Cincinnati Bengals.
LA Rams players stand for"Lift Every Voice and Sing" ahead of Super Bowl LVI against the Cincinnati Bengals at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, on Feb. 13, 2022. The saying"End Racism" is painted into the end zone on one side of the Chiefs stadium on Sept. 10, 2020, in Kansas City, Missouri. The NFL started to play the Black national anthem in the 2020 season following the death of George Floyd at the hands of Minneapolis police officers. The incident started a wave of actions against racial injustice across the U.S.
"Lift Every Voice and Sing" is widely considered to be the Black national anthem. The NAACP began to promote it as such in 1917.
