Rally at NFL headquarters set to condemn singer's Super Bowl performance

The performance has gone on to initiate a #BoycottBeyonce hashtag, with protesters reportedly set to organise a rally aimed at the NFL headquarters slated for next Tuesday, February 16.

From the former mayor of New York City to many other big players in the American government, as well as her fans,  many have condemned her performance calling it violence inciting and hatred towards the police.

The anti-Beyonce rally is also reportedly fueled by her salute to the Black Panther Party during the Super Bowl 50 halftime show.

The unidentified organizer of the rally, writing in the EventBrite description, said:

"Join us as we demonstrate on the block of the NFL Headquarters building. Are you offended as an American that Beyoncé pulled her race-baiting stunt at the Superbowl? Do you agree that it was a slap in the face to law enforcement? Do you agree that the Black Panthers was/is a hate group which should not be glorified? Come and let's stand together. Let's tell the NFL we don't want hate speech & racism at the Superbowl ever again!"

We really hope Beyonce's performance stirs the right kind of change for the black community as we all hope.
