The "black national anthem" is obviously a Christian hymn. Is the "woke" left removing any references to God when they promote it? Aren't these the same people who wanted "under God" removed from the pledge?

It's because I care about black heritage, especially the heritage of black Christians, that I don't want the left appropriating the song.

There is no such think as a black national anthem. Period.

What God are they singing about?
God is someone all religions claim to know about, but specifically Jesus Christ is God come in the flesh.
It is relatively painless to acknowledge a creator God and sing about that, but the name of Christ mentioned in song really focuses which God is being celebrated.
So that anthem pretty much any non atheist of any religion can agree with.
Matthew 10
34 “Do not think that I came to bring peace on earth. I did not come to bring peace but a sword. 35 For I have come to ‘set a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law’; 36 and ‘a man’s enemies will be those of his own household.’ -
There is no Black National Anthem and no White National Anthem. There is the National Anthem of the US, which applies to citizens of the US without regard to race.
It is unfortunate many Black men and women desire segregation in order to maintain a sense of "history" - especially as their desires discount the men and women who put their lives on the line to end slavery, to end Jim Crow laws, and to fight for racial equality.
The Black Anthem (not the song, but it's use) is a mockery of Black history.
