In this episode of the Morris Perspective Podcast, host Connie Morris explores the significance of two national anthems, 'The Star-Spangled Banner' and 'Lift Every Voice and Sing.' By examining their historical contexts, the different questions they address, and the symbols and experiences they represent, Morris emphasizes the importance of understanding both perspectives to grasp the full American story. The conversation highlights the need for integration rather than division, aiming to bring together the nation's narratives and its people.
