“I really see the song as a living symbol.” @usmusicscholar, author of “O Say Can You Hear?,” speaks with @LinseyDavis on how the national anthem has impacted our country culture and why it remains heavily disputed today.
Who performed “The Star-Spangled Banner” best? The author of a book about the song reckons it was Whitney Houston at the Super Bowl in 1991—but salutes Jimi Hendrix’s rendition at Woodstock econ.st/3OiFFTr

LOVE—an endless stream, the universe’s creative force; what binds us & makes our souls glow. Yesterday @francielbm & I expressed in words what our hearts had been saying to each other for a long time. We made a promise as old as time & we intend to keep it for as long as we exist

Both a thrill & honor to meet @Kaepernick7 to give him a copy of my anthem history “O Say Can You Hear?” in thanks for inspiring me to dig deeper into the song, its lyric, and its author. For me, protest is not unAmerican, but the ultimate patriotic act of both hope and devotion.

After a decade of research, my @wwnorton book on “The Star-#Spangled Banner” is on the way! Grateful to the many folks who helped bring this project to fruition. It’s filled with surprises. #1 is the 575+ lyrics written to the tune. See wwnorton.com/books/978039365… #History

CEO Jesse Rosen: Events of past weeks have changed my own beliefs about the centrality of racism in our society, beyond other forms of discrimination. We have not yet figured out what this means for our org, or how to be good partners w/ respect to equity in resources. #Orch2020
