The Home of Brave, by Michael Moore

Summary
In this powerful call to conscience, Michael Moore reflects on what it truly means to be Brave in America. By Michael Moore I’ve been thinking a lot recently about the idea of bravery. About what it takes to stand up, to make yourself heard, to be a FORCE that forces a system to change. This kind of bravery comes in different forms. Not all of them are loud. Some are quiet. Some are small. But each action is a part of what we all must do. Our National Anthem famously proclaims this land, America, to be “the home of the brave.” But the song itself was written by a slaveholder who said Black people were “a distinct and inferior race” — and the third stanza of the song (which we never sing at sporting events) is explicitly racist, warning all enslaved humans to banish any thoughts of running away to freedom lest we cut you down dead in your tracks. Francis Scott Key was not a brave man.
