Wonder what the (self called) ‘purists’ would have to say about this...

Battle Hymn of the Republic follows up...
I didn’t know the Spiritual songs and Hymns were copyrighted material by any one race.
Freedom of Speech?
We as a collective are appalling ...

Yes indeed.
Proper reply is “when was the last time you ugly bigoted black ass sang that song....or went to church for that matter? STFU & F.O.U.B”
Whites should be angry at anybody who is non-white, in a suit, using a computer, driving a car, playing classical music, going into space, making a movie, using a lightbulb, using electricity, in a Shakespeare play...
Or maybe just enjoy contributions made by our ancestors. I don’t think Indians or Persians get mad that people use 0.
Should Michael JACKSON WEAR A FEDORA?
White choir sings black spirituals, and all hell breaks loose
Should Ray Charles play the piano?
I tried Zipa De Doo Dah in Italian and it just don’t seem the same.

“So a black “Dorothy” is just fine in “The Wiz” but white folks singing black “spirituals” is horrible.”
Hamilton is played by a black guy.
...but they don’t feel no ways tired

Let them have “Don’t wade in the water”. In fact, we should do this like a professional sports draft. In the first round I claim “Amazing Grace” for the Whites team.
If they used Social Media to complain then they are guilty of cultural appropriation because Social Media was invented by white people.
I am appalled that the collective was too stupid to use English words correctly.
Well, English is her second language...................
“”We as a collective are appalling [sic] that this took place on our campus,” The Black Student Union wrote in a statement. “This act is a further example and reflection of the racial insensitivity and ignorance that has been allowed to occur on Western Michigan’s campus.”

60 years ago when I attended WMU, there was only one Student Union for all students, black and white. Who are the racists that segregated the black students into a separate student union?
