        No. Taking a knee is not about that. It is about SYSTEMIC VIOLENCE AGAINST PEOPLE OF COLOR.

        We have no idea what they are doing individually or collectively to make a difference but them kneeling is saying we understand the issue

        What I think needs to be done can’t be done by me. The changes that need to be made need to be made by black people themselves.

        Dear NYT, it is NOT a debate about the anthem. Stop billing it as such and equality can become a reality. Unless that’s not what you want?!

        In fifty years, we will all be kneeling for the national anthem and a dude will stand in protest, and get attacked for it.

        Add to the confusion @nytimes It is not about the anthem/flag. Racial injustice is being protested. Get it right.
