You are right, it was 1814. And it was during a battle with the British.

I think it was during the War of 1812

Re: Black National Anthem?? What in the world...

My response to her "rendition" of our National Anthem:


EXTREME RAGE!

MY OTHER THOUGHTS ABOUT HER AND HER STUPID EXPRESSION OF CREATIVITY WOULD GET ME BANNED FOR SURE!!!

IT NEVER FAILS, I AM NOT SURE IF THERE HAS EVER BEEN A GROUP OF PEOPLE AS SELF DESTRUCTIVE AS US, "AFRICAN-AMERICANS".

By the way, I'm American and I'm Black-- nothing African about me or my family for at least 5 generations.

Wow.....I so appreciate your post.

I just don't understand wanting the connection at all.

I'm Heinz 57 white European, but I sure don't want to be called European-American. I'm American and anyone else born and raised here is too!

Glad to hear this post!!!!
