In recent years, discussions surrounding standing for the national anthem have ignited nationwide debates, forcing us to question the significance and relevance of this patriotic act. Recently singer Jill Scott performed a thought-provoking rendition of the anthem, which incorporated the struggles of African Americans and their integral contributions to building the United States. Many have begun to argue for the dismissal of the Star-Spangled Banner as the national anthem. This raises the question: Why do we stand for the national anthem, and should we continue to do so if it no longer serves its intended purpose? In this episode I discuss the United States national anthem, its origins, controversies, why citizens stand and more.
