San Francisco 49ers QB Colin Kaepernick hosts 'Know Your Rights' camp for Oakland-area youth

 

He is doing more than just kneeling.

 

That is good stuff.

Good to see that he's walking the walk and not just taking a knee.:thumb:

Kaepernick didn't vote in the election.

 

SAS went off on him on ESPN.

Best way to beat Kap in a game is when they are on offense is to play National Anthem so he will take a knee and down the ball.

That's great :lol2:

There are 325 million people in the US. Two-thirds of them are non-hispanic whites. Having a handful of them do stupid racist things does not speak for the other 216 million. However, our media - network and social - gets more play by blowing these things up. MAYBE it is time we STOP looking for racism in the few idiots and enjoy what we have in all the others (mainly non-idiots).

Yes, ignoring it will most certainly solve the problem. You can't truly believe that's the solution...

Who said anything about ignoring problems? But...casting every person for the deeds of a few or blowing demonstrations out of proportion is just as wrong. I think many people are sick of mind games.

Some of us are sick of racism being normalized.

It's an exercise in futility. How about we just recognize that your perspective is different from mine and call it a day.

 

I'd say you can google latent racism and possibly even the normalization of racism and find some examples there. Probably easier that way because I am pretty sure that nothing I say will matter and I'm tired today. Just got off work. I may engage later when I wake up. I may not. Who knows. I'm hangry and tired right now.

Maybe what I would really like to know is "what will the world look like when there is no racism?'. Maybe one can say it is not human nature, so it will never happen, but I can't accept that. However, if we don't have a common vision of how the world, country or neighborhood will look without it, we don't stand a chance. How does one meet a goal that is not defined or clarified? BTW, I will google the topics you offered. Have a good rest my friend.

An enlightening read.

Not sure what it means, or if it means anything at all, but despite being a very sorry excuse for a team, the 49ers are among the league leaders in attendance. Even if not everyone who bought a ticket shows up.
