There are injustices throughout our world but in sports the greatest injustice is that Colin Kaepernick still is not on an NFL roster as of the time of this writing. Yes, he knelt for the national anthem. Yes, he wore socks that depicted police officers as pigs. My message to NFL executives is “Get over it.” It’s been a year and the man has every right to have a career in the NFL. He is better than most starting QBs in the league.
As someone who has seen people of his own race supress people of Colin Kaepernick’s race for more than three centuries, allow me to say that these injustices have to end or else we all will suffer very severely for a very long time. In turn, I personally would like to be seen not as an oppressor but as a brother to my black brothers and sisters, and as far as my race goes I’d like to see them stop persecuting blacks and other minorities based on their accent and skin color.
Honestly I can’t see why we can’t all get along. But we better soon or we all will lose. All of us.
