It featured her flanked by women sporting afros, black leather jackets and black pantsuits – a clear nod to the Black Panther Party of the 1960s and 1970s. At one point during the song, the dancers formed an “X” on the field, which is supposed to be a direct reference to the former Nation of Islam speaker Malcolm X.
After the performance, Beyonce’s dancers were photographed giving the black power salute and holding up a sign that read “Justice 4 Mario Woods”.

Some critics about her new single “Formation” has caused a polarizing discussion, including a negative comment from former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani.
“I’m not sure, as usual, what Mr Giuliani was talking about”, Andrew Rosenthal writes in the New York Times. Yet somehow the internet proved me wrong this week when someone created the hashtag #BoycottBeyonce to bash Bey for performing her pro-black anthem “Formation” during Sunday’s Super Bowl halftime show.
Guiliani described the half-time show as a “bunch of people bouncing around and all unusual things” and said Beyonce did not understand that “this is football, not Hollywood”.

“Michael Brown was a criminal who had robbed a convenience store and then attempted to kill Police Officer Darren Wilson”, he continued. Cops deserve support not criminals’. “She was putting a spotlight on what has been going on in the community for the past year or two with the Black Lives Matter”. Welcome to today’s America’.
Beyonce shocked everyone on Saturday, February 6, after dropping her provocative “Formation” video, which she performed the following day at Super Bowl 50.
“I wanted people to feel proud”, she explained, “and have love for themselves”.
