    My Latest As long as the NFL has effectively banned Colin Kaepernick from the league for standing against injustice, EVERY MOVE THEY MAKE on social justice is rooted in a lie I reject their current gesture & encourage other NFL players to do so as wellhttps://theintercept.com/2017/12/02/colin-kaepernick-nfl-ban-criminal-justice-players-shaun-king/ …

        That's probably why a lot of people are not supporting/understanding his message.This is politics.Not feelings.He's a young man.It seems like he cares.I hope he starts to learn a little about politics/tactics.It will play an important part.In furthering his message.

        What rational person is for police brutality and against accountability? Drawing attention to brutality and a lack of accountability is his message. Anything else you have heard is a bastardized version and not the truth.

        I understand his message.I was refering to Kaepernick's lack of experience in politics.Which makes sense.He's a football player.Just trying to find a more effective way to fight these forces.

        The public didn't need Kaepernick to teach them about police brutality.

        Thank you for calling this out. The Montgomery Bus Boycott was effective because we ALL "walked" together. Why IS is so hard to find something else to do during football season? A lot of communities need rebuilding. Perfect time to organize. Volunteer!

        “Since Kaepernick first took a knee, a staggering 1,500 people have been killed by American police. This year is on pace to be worse than last year.” What will Kap critics do about this?

        Props to @E_Reid35 for keeping it real from day one. You did the right thing by walking away brother. It's just s sham if Kaep isn't front and center. We justice seekers see you and the truth and are in awe of your courage.
