Join us for episode 18 of the DONESON podcast as we discuss Francis Scott Key. Key was the author of the most recognized song in our country -our national anthem. A song that was derived from an original poem by Key, is now a sign of patriotism. However, when you look beneath the surface, there's much more to the story. Key's clear support of slavery and general open bigotry against African-Americans, seems to have been muted against the sounds of The Star-Spangled Banner. Does his work as an attorney and his deep spirituality counteract his racist notions? Listen to the podcast and find out!
