Dem. Rep. Steve Cohen Blasts Super Bowl Fans for Not Standing for ‘Negro National Anthem’
Breitbart ^ | 02/12/2024 | WARNER TODD HUSTON

Posted on 02/12/2024 8:44:02 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

White Tennessee Democrat Congressman Steve Cohen was incensed that Super Bowl fans did not stand in respect for what he called the “Negro National Anthem” during Sunday night’s big game.

As it has for the last several championship games, the NFL opened the Super Bowl with the song “Life Every Voice and Sing,” which many agitators have proclaimed to be “the black national anthem.”

Of course, it isn’t a “national anthem” at all, but regardless, Congressman Cohen was not happy that the video of fans in the stands showed that not many were standing as R&B singer Andra Day performed the popular song.

He quickly jumped to his X account to scold the fans.

“Very very few stood at Super Bowl for ‘Lift Every Voice and Sing’. The Negro National Anthem. Not a pretty picture of Super Bowl crowd,” he wrote.

Cohen is a baal worshiper. Causing trouble since Sinai.

Apparently this is the first time he rose from his coffin since 1960. Again...politicians are the most culturally illiterate beings on the planet.

Best paid slaves on the planet. And even better: when they escape, nobody hunts them down.

When asked his reaction to this gaffe, Innis replied, “That’s OK. They probably thought I was a rap singer.”

Roger Goodell was silent on the question of “the Asian national anthem.”

Why isn’t Steve Cohen taking heat for using the word “negro”?

Is this another case of it’s (D)ifferent?
