We talked about the halftime show in my language studies class this morning! I gave them a prompt about the discourse of Bad Bunny being an "un-American" choice, and then they (with not much resistance) talked me into us watching the whole show so we could also talk about how the show itself engages with the discussions about language & racism
The 1992 SuperBowl show is right out of SCTV…believe me, it was dated even in 1992! But—kudos to those high school orchestral musicians. They are phenomenal!
This goes up there with some of the great uses of left rhetoric, imo: saying "God Bless America" (which I first feared was a sop to the racists) and then introducing *all* of America from South to North. Frickin' awesome.

Oh believe me, I remember how dated it was! That's why I was so excited about the Living Color alternative :)
Sycophantic? Sychophantic? Anyways, I think They Might Be Giants had a good song about this topic.
