The Economist@TheEconomist

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

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.
