Radical Student Leaders at California High School Ban ‘Racist’ National Anthem

The upcoming generation of cultural Marxists has declared open war against the national anthem which it has deemed to be racist and therefore must be cleansed to make room for the new order.

Leftist student “leaders” at California’s San Ramon High School have run roughshod and imposed their will over feckless administrators and timid fellow students by declaring that the Star-Spangled Banner will no longer be played at rallies and will all but certainly be banned from sporting events as well.

Like many of the other imbeciles who have suddenly decided that after over two centuries, the national anthem of the United States of America is white supremacist code speak based on an obscure part of a verse that hardly anyone has ever heard of before.

Via the San Jose Mercury News “National anthem removed from rallies at San Ramon high school”:

An old staple, the national anthem, was missing from the last California High School student rally and may not be coming back anytime soon.

Student leadership at the school pulled the Star-Spangled Banner from its Jan. 19 rally in protest of what it says are racist lyrics in unsung verses of the song. The story was first reported by The Californian, the student newspaper.

But not everyone is happy about the decision. Dennis Fiorentinos, a senior, told this newspaper Tuesday that he noticed at the January rally that they skipped the national anthem, and went right into the first activity.

“It clicked in my head that they didn’t do the national anthem. I thought they forgot about it,” he said.

So he went to speak with the teacher adviser to the leadership class, who informed him that they had made the decision to remove it. The leadership class consists of elected student body members, such as the class president.

“The message behind the national anthem is one of unity… to protect the freedoms that many of us take for granted every day,” Fiorentinos said.

He’s in support of the democratic process that this country was founded on, and said he would like to see a student vote, or poll, to at least gauge the community’s perception in removing the anthem.

“This could have been mitigated, had they gone to the people first,” he said.

He said he understands and respects that the student leaders were elected by the students themselves to represent them. But, they weren’t elected based on a platform, he said.

The school’s newspaper “The Californian” quotes one of those responsible for the ban:

Leadership adviser Erin McFerrin agrees that the song is problematic and that action should be taken moving forward to ensure that every student feels welcomed, especially after last year when racial graffiti was found on campus.

“In the leadership class, [we strive on] being really inclusive and mindful of all the decisions we make,” said McFerrin. “We didn’t really know why we were doing [the anthem during] the rally, so we just thought it was something maybe we could take out.”

Many students, such as senior Alexis Hooper, didn’t notice the song was removed until informed.

“I don’t really care,” Hooper said. “The National Anthem is a tradition from many years ago and the only people who really care about it are older generations.”

Last year the California chapter of the NAACP formally called for the country to do away with the anthem as a way to make things right with Colin Kaepernick.

As we reported right here at Downtrend, California NAACP President Alice Huffman announced her plans to petition the communist-infested State Legislature to remove the song as the nation’s anthem.

That radical idea has gained currency from black separatists including Congressional Black Caucus member Rep. Danny Davis (D-IL) who recently defended hatemonger Louis Farrakhan as an “outstanding human being” and with race relations at a low point, the song will continue to be exploited by black identity extremists to foment animosity toward whites and to erase the nation’s history.

Including the upcoming generation at San Ramon High School. What’s next? Replacing it with the national anthem of Wakanda?
