At the root of why Colin is doing what he's doing, taking a life altering stance against injustice in America, is his desire to stand up for our kids.
Beautiful images from this @GQMagazine photoshoot capture that.

One word, Powerful!
-
Two words are better than one! Powerfully confused.
-
Well, stay that way.
-
Actually referring to your kneeling hero, but I guess birds if a feather do flock together. Powerfully confused people like to laud individuals with no merit attributing grandeur to their acts of selfishness that turn to infamy. This guy stands for nothing to respect.
-
To critize ones country is true Patriotism that's how we make it better.
-
I agree, but there is a time and place. Not during the anthem when unity is displayed by all Americans on behalf of our country and those who have fought for it & served honorably.
-
What’s your time and place then? Cuz literally every other time and place no one listens to POC on this issue. This is some 1950’s thinking. Same statements made by segregationists back then.

Thats ridiculous! The guy never has done anything prior to his rejection by the publlic for his unpatriotic kneeling. Fake plaudits trying to give reason to his disrespecting the National Anthem. There is time & place for protest but not during the N. Anthem.
-
Wow really!
-
Ok name something he has done prior to his kneeling. There's nothing.
-
Name something that you've done to fight injustice, mass incarceration, police brutality, inequality etc? I bet you won't respond

I feel like kap is trying way too hard to have his picture in the history books along great men like MLK and dudes that did more than kneel for an anthem and get fired by the league

1) It wasn't just a bunch of "great men" fighting injustice.
