...giggled and then started all over again. Instantaneously a parade was underway and it has been going on ever since. There were soldiers from every nation participating in the war – except Germany. All the national anthems of the allies were played at the parade and the crowds, which were large, cheered, but it was all very solemn. The streets are crowded and all traffic is held up. This is a moment that will never be replicated. Not even a motion picture of the masses can capture the expression or the sound of joy that the people are creating. Today, Paris is the center of the world. There is nowhere I would be rather than where I am today, Ma. Home with you and the rest of the family would be pleasant, and I will head back home soon, I promise, but Paris and France is free after four years and 3 months of conflict. The souls of these French people have solely bursted with delight, and it is spreading. Everyone feels united. It is difficult to purchase a flag in Paris currently. It appears that everyone has one and the old streets are one compact mass of colors with flags from all the allied nations. Paris, that majestic old city, that has been shadowy for so long, is now shining again. An American band has come together outside, and they are playing our national anthem. It is magnificent that the war is over. I can imagine the entire world is exultant. But nowhere on earth is there a celebration as here in Paris. I only hope and pray that the soldiers who died in the...

...movement continued to protest and fight for equal rights. Over time, they have become more unpopular for blocking off highways and interrupting presidential speeches. This has led to some black protests without directly mentioning the movement. This essay will examine Colin Kaepernick’s protests during the national anthem and the responses received as well as the impact his actions have had across the country. Colin Kaepernick is a quarterback for the San Francisco 49ers. He began the 2016 preseason by sitting down during the national anthem. For the first two games, he mostly went unnoticed. It was the third game that people started notice. “I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color,” Kaepernick explained. “To me, this is bigger than football and it would be selfish on my part to look the other way. There are bodies in the street and people getting paid leave and getting away with murder.” For the remainder of the season, Kapernick continued to protest during the national anthem. He later switched from sitting to kneeling out of respect for veterans and those serving in the military. Many of the reactions Kaepernick...

...Kneeling during the national anthem in protest of racial oppression is causing professionals like Lawrence Brownlee’s job to become difficult. As shown in Michael Cooper’s NYT article “Tenor Will Sing Anthem at N.F.L. Game but Supports Athletes’ Kneeling Protest” which explains Brownlee’s moral dilemma when asked to sing the anthem at an NFL football game. This comes from the battle of standing and kneeling during his singing, as he stands for both sides. Even though this act of protest is bringing light to their cause, it is not the way to fight their cause. The national anthem does not stand for the current state of America; it stands for the start of the evolution of our nation. The anthem is here for the fight for independence...

...August 2016 is a month that will forever be remembered in the history of the NFL and our country. One man sparked a movement that overtook the National Football League by storm over the next two years. This man being Colin Kaepernick, former super bowl caliber quarterback for the San Francisco 49ers, had a message he thought deserved to be in the limelight and at the attention of all U.S. citizens who felt discrimination from people who hold higher positions in the United States. So as of August 14, 2016, Kaepernick began to sit out the national anthem in protest (Sandritter). This led to a snowball effect of wrongful discrimination towards most NFL players because of what they did following the Kaepernick events, how the politics got involved,...

...Police brutality is an issue among cities and states, recently protested at football games. Football players have been kneeling down to the national anthem in order to protest against the issue. Police brutality is the use of excessive or unnecessary force by police when dealing with normal day people. “Excessive use of force” means to do something well beyond what would be necessary in order to handle a situation, for example many policemen have been reported, shooting an unarmed person in the back. Even though police brutality is an issue it is disrespectful to the many people who fought for our freedom. NFL players should not kneel during the national anthem to protest police brutality because the national anthem stands for our freedom that soldiers of the United States Army fought for....

...The National Anthem began to play during public events, such as July 4th celebrations throughout the 19th century. On July 27, 1889, Secretary of the Navy Benjamin F. Tracy signed General order #374, which made the Star Spangled Banner the official tune to be played at the raising of the flag. In 1916, President Woodrow Wilson ordered that the Star Spangled Banner to be played at military and other appropriate occasions. The playing of the song two years later during the seventh inning stretch of the 1918 World Series, and thereafter during each game of the series is often noted as the first instance that the Anthem was played at a baseball game. The tradition of performing the National Anthem before every baseball game began during World War II, which is undoubtably a time in our country when each and every person felt a strong sense of patriotism. Today the anthem is played before the beginning of all MLS, NBA, NFL, MLB, and NHL games, as well as pre-race ceremonies for NASCAR.

...fight for his country, he made an oath to fight for his country’s freedom and he will keep it. When he went to get up, the enemy shot him in the other leg and by this time he had lost so much blood that he lay down and took his final breath.

Recently, NFL players have kneeled during the National Anthem to exercise their right of freedom of speech. This act of disagreement has caused dispute over the...
