Re: woman sings "black national anthem" instead of star spangled banner.
The issue I have is not with what she did, which was dumb, but it becoming a national news story. We now live in the outrage culture, in which every perceived affront to American tradition and values is debated on awful news shows, made to be part and parcel of a larger assault on American heritage.
She's an obscure jazz singer who did a stupid thing at a local event. Why give her the celebrity of even acknowledging her?
