The National Anthem Does Not 'Celebrate Slavery': The Meaning of Lyric Used to Defend Kaepernick

This explanation makes more since, it also gives the whole verse and not the snippet many use to try and say its wrong or "racist". I stand on the principle that we are all of the human race just of different colors, cultures and faiths.

I will be posting this on facebook and letting others know the full context, I also have changed my view a bit on it now that I have seen the full context and not a snippet, I was also raised to keep an open mind on these issues!
