I’ve watched every Super Bowl for over 30 straight years. This year I will not be watching. I have not watched a single NFL game this season. They have effectively banned Colin Kaepernick from the league due to a peaceful protest of police brutality. This will never be OK.
Today, before every movie being played at the @IFCCenter - they will be showing this short film, Concussion Protocol, by the brilliant @JoshBegley & our team @fieldofvisionhttps://twitter.com/shaunking/status/959032792880435200 …
This was Week 1 of this NFL season. Brother, we were standing with you then. And we are standing with you now. Your enemies are our enemies. That’s forever.pic.twitter.com/nNhC0fbPc8

Meanwhile Malcolm Jenkins is standing proud with his fist held high. Chris Long has donated his entire salary to Philadelphia schools. I like you, brother, but take a moment and look around before clicking that send button.https://billypenn.com/2018/01/31/how-13-eagles-players-have-given-back-to-the-community/ …
Malcolm Jenkins and Chris Long have been and will continue to be extraordinary agents for change. Proud to call them Eagles.
I hope Eagles win!
Statistically speaking, (racially biased) police brutality is a myth created by BLM.
You're part of the problem thinking that way. White privilege at best.
Just because something isn't an everyday experience for you doesn't negate the issue for those who experience it daily.
I prefere stats before subjective ”realities”. Blacks are first and foremost killed by other blacks. Here’s some nice infographics:https://youtu.be/UQCQFH5wOJo
I believe someday Colin Kaepernick will be revered for his courageous protest the way Rosa Parks is today. Fighting against police brutality has been part of the civil rights movement since day one. Why are people refusing to see that?
Because it makes them think about how they are complicit in it with their silence. Animals don't like thinking.
I'm not referring to races as animals. But, you go ahead and cower away from addressing the lack of humanity these folks display. Wouldn't want you to be uncomfortable.
Ha! The guy who prompted this reply deleted his comment. Or blocked me. Either way, I guess he took my advice. People rarely do that.
This will also be my first year not watching the #SuperBowl. And it is in (yet another) year that features my lifelong favorite team the @Patriots. There just comes a point when you can’t ignore or unsee all it stands for and condones.
I told another lawyer Friday I wouldn't be watching the super bowl and he said "what kind of a white blooded American are you?" He paused a second and realized his Freudian slip and said "I mean red blooded American."
