There are a lot of ways to earn the Internet's righteous ire these days. You candeny the Earth's shape, or run for president. Or you can hold a rally protesting one of the world's most talented and beloved musical artists.
That last way is why I spent Tuesday morning investigating a planned anti-Beyoncé rally in New York City.
The protest was declared response to Beyonce's politically charged Super Bowl performance, which paid tribute to the Black Panther party and made a truly special subset of viewers uncomfortable. It was this demographic that was invited to protest Beyoncé outside the NFL's headquarters on Park Avenue.
I am not anti-Beyoncé — not even a little. Instead, I was more interested in the anti-anti-Beyonce group that assembled to protest the protest itself. On Tuesday morning, the anti-anti movement proves itself to be punctual, represented by at least a dozen members — and even some signage.
