Beyonce Deliver Strong Message On Her Super Bowl Performance

   The superstar had been expected to deliver a political statement during her performance of new single Formation after releasing the video yesterday which featured graffiti reading 'stop shooting us'
Beyonce delivers a political message from a performance at the super bowl 50 half time, she performed with dancers dressed like members of armed right group black Panthers,the dancer at a point formed an X on the ground signifying Malcolm  X.
The Black Panthers were involved in the black power right movement of the sixties and 70's .following the teaching of  Malcolm X.

   At one point during the performance the dancers raised their arms in the air in a gesture referencing the black power salute by Tommie Smith and John Carlos at the Australian Olympics
  Tina Knowles, Beyonce's mother, also uploaded this image to her Instagram of herself and the dancers giving the black power salute
  Beyonce was the star performer of this year's halftime show that was actually hosted by British rock group Coldplay
  At one point during the routine the dancers formed into an 'X', believed to be a reference to rights campaigner Malcolm X
  While the dancers were dressed head to toe in black costumes, they also wore the black berets that became the Panther's symbol in the Sixties and Seventies 
                          
   Beyonce stole a halftime show which also featured performances from British rock group Coldplay and Bruno Mars
   Coldplay's halftime message was rather more upbeat and colorful, with 'Believe In Love' written across the crowd
