The platform has been nothing but everlasting hate. I have been trying to start something new, like becoming a virtual preacher on TikTok. I still got only ~200 views or even less on every single Christian/Biblical video I uploaded.

The only posts that have 1000 or more views are the "interesting" pet videos and the screenshots of articles I have wrote. Yet, the platform is constantly letting underage girls who twerk and repeat sexual vulgarities from song lyrics get at least 2000 views.

Views are far more important than likes when it comes to the TikTok aglorithm. I can have 30 likes and 150 views, but the video with 3 likes and 1500 views is way better according to the aglorithm. Less than 1% of my followers ever view my livestreams, making me the worst TikTok user ever.

The song is an important part of African American culture and history. For decades, it has been sung in Black communities at school plays, awards programs, graduations and church services. Clyburn said it’s time for it to be sung in other communities.

“To make it a national hymn, I think, would be an act of bringing the country together. It would say to people, ‘You aren’t singing a separate national anthem, you are singing the country’s national hymn,’” said Clyburn, the highest-ranking Black American in Congress. “The gesture itself would be an act of healing. Everybody can identify with that song.”

He plans to introduce a measure as early as this week that would make “Lift Every Voice and Sing,” known as the Black national anthem, the national hymn and give it a special place alongside the country’s anthem, “The Star-Spangled Banner.”

U. S. Rep. James Clyburn, D-S. C., wants a song about faith and resilience long revered in the Black community to become the national hymn and help unite the country after centuries of racial turmoil.
