The cheering for McEntire and the mixed reception of Day’s performance reflect a broader societal struggle with race, identity, and unity. While many see the inclusion of “Lift Every Voice and Sing” as a step forward in acknowledging the contributions and trials of African Americans, others perceive it as divisive, viewing the traditional National Anthem as the sole unifying song appropriate for such occasions.
This dichotomy raises important questions about the role of major sporting events in addressing or sidestepping social issues. The Super Bowl, watched by millions around the globe, is more than just a game; it’s a cultural touchstone that reflects and influences American values and identity. The reactions to McEntire and Day’s performances illustrate the challenge of navigating a path that honors tradition while also embracing a broader, more inclusive understanding of patriotism.
