We must do away with it like South Africans did away with their monument to Cecil Rhodes. That President Woodrow Wilson, widely thought to be one of the most bigoted presidents ever elected, chose it as our national anthem, is painfully telling as well. Answer (1 of 4): Was the music to the 'Star Spangled Banner' stolen from a British drinking song Certainly not John Ross Key wrote ‘The Defence of Fort M’Henry’ aboard HMS Tonnant. “The Star-Spangled Banner” should’ve never been made into our national anthem. Like Kaepernick, I’ve had enough of injustice in America and I’ve had enough of anthems written by bigots. It should’ve been removed a very long time ago, student leaders made it clear that they had had enough. The statue of the racist Cecil Rhodes, which stood tall in South Africa as a painful relic from white supremacists until March of 2015, was finally removed once and for all. I don’t care where I am or who’s watching. I will never stand for “The Star-Spangled Banner” another day in my damn life. Your new dream come true would be to have one of those “Men in Black” wands waved over your face so that you could forget the implications of the meal you just ate. When he explained why, he only spoke about. You just want to get the hell away from there. Before a preseason game on Friday, San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick refused to stand for the playing of The Star-Spangled Banner. You are “call the health department and post an angry one-star review on Yelp” level undone. As you stand outside without even finishing your meal, you see the world’s largest rat dart out from under a gaping hole by the restaurant door. Then, the unthinkable happens - the man who made your comfort food walks right past the sink and doesn’t even wash his hands. A man emerges from the stall having followed by the foulest odor you’ve ever smelled in your life, and you notice he’s still wearing his apron from the kitchen. Then you go to the restroom and it’s filthy. The lyrics come from the Defence of Fort MHenry, a poem written on September 14. Then, imagine yourself glancing up on the wall and seeing that the restaurant had a score of C minuses on their health inspection. The Star-Spangled Banner is the national anthem of the United States.
