Singer Jully Black makes small change to ‘O Canada’ lyrics at NBA All-Star Game
It’s a subtle change, but one noticed by many Canadians.
Toronto R&B singer Jully Black is known for her memorable performances on stage. Add Sunday’s NBA All-Star Game to the list.
While singing the country’s anthem, ‘O Canada’, Black changed one word of the lyrics, belting out “our home on native land” instead of “our home and native land,” a reference to the country’s history of expropriation of Indigenous people.
Many took to social media to praise Black for the subtle lyric change.
