Do you feel there should continue to be a Black  (Negro) National Anthem?

Well, in my opinion, I think so. We need to represent our selves, plus we have the authority as well as anyone else. That is our right.

We can’t forget where we came from. We can’t forget the struggles.

No, we are all one person. God created man to enjoy himself on this planet until He comes back to take us. To me I don’t see white and Black, I see everyone as the same.

Why not? What is wrong with lifting our voice and singing in harmony and still wanting liberty? I don’t see anything wrong with that.


Clinie Ford-Lilly, 64

I think that it is necessary because we can never forget our roots and where we came from.

We can still sing the song but if it is not ringing true then we need something that is going to ring true for the Black community.
