Is it bad to be aware that the country is made up of people from varying backgrounds, cultures, and customs? Am I to tell my nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends that I can't respect this song because it's "just more wokeism"? If you read the lyrics, it's actually a very good song.
What's wrong with the song that unifies a whole nation rather than separates ones race?
You are correct
"the country is made up of people from varying backgrounds, races, cultures and customs"
What made this nation great was and is we are a giant melting pot, all equal.
We all did and should still all be unifying as human beings, regardless of race, color, sex, under one proud national theme and flag. We are all the same, all human, all equal. We are Americans!
Instead one proposes to pay attention to just one race out of the whole world and nation? What about religion, sex, cultures, nationality?
This is what divides a nation and its a huge mistake to think otherwise, it tears the fabric of a nation apart, happens all around the world but all of a sudden an agenda/idea that sounds good (maybe planted by an adversary), interesting it ALWAYS starts in the universities, think about that, divide us up. It never, ever ends well. Why do you think rogue governments seize the universities?
Adversaries know it, "united we stand, divided we fall" No one can deny it, read up on history, it ALWAYS repeats itself.
Humans ALWAYS want power over others, once you nicely carve up a nation, one segment of society will try to control the weaker segments, Look around the world.
"and so ends the sermon of the day"
(just discussing here, I just dont know how many people give this some deep thought)
I live in a country where in my eyes, we are all equal, all the same and no one segment of society is to be treated different than all the others, except criminals of course!
