Podcaster and former ESPN host Sage Steele took aim at the use of what is referred to as the “black national anthem” — “Lift Every Voice and Sing” — saying that performing it at major sporting events is divisive in America, and it’s being shoved “down people’s throats.”
Speaking with comedian, actor, and musician Reggie Watts on “The Sage Steele Show,” Steele stated, “I never intended to stir the pot, but now I don’t care. … I don’t like this whole black national anthem thing.”
“What’s the black national anthem?” Watts responded.
“See?” Steele pointed out.
