National Anthem
Miles James is an all-star African American quarterback at a predominantly White Ivy
League college. He’s projected to be a Number One draft choice with an opportunity to make
millions of dollars. He learns about the 3rd verse of the Star Spangled Banner and considers it
racist and offensive to African-Americans. He wants to use his platform as a star athlete to bring
national awareness to this issue. Is he willing to suffer the consequences of his actions?
