And probably 95% of the league, regardless of color, are Americans. That's their nationality. There is no black "National" anthem. Black is not a nation. The United States is a nation. Canada is a nation. All the countries in Africa are nations. You don't get a different national anthem based on what color your skin is.

This is some of the most ignorant shit I've ever heard. Lift Every Voice and Sing has been referred to as the Black National Anthem for over 100 years! Not to mention that countries and nations aren't the same thing. You've likely heard of the Seminole Nation or Cherokee Nation. The Arab Nation consists of 22 Arab speaking countries. The German Nation doesn't confine itself to the state of Germany (fwiw, this became an issue in the 1930s). Nations are groups of people. Countries are territories. Sometimes they overlap, but not always.
