I dont understand how Black people can publicly criticize, go against, or scold Colin for this no matter how subtle. If they wanted to make an united stand they could all hold hands while sitting. White people rarely come on our side to show support and race unity, its always us going on theirs.

But our people do this shyt alot. Always criticizing action instead of just joining in or saying nothing. You don't have to agree with every little detail of the protest!! I supported Ferguson riots and looting, Black Friday protest, BLM, Micah, Gavin, and Korrine. Not because I would handle things exactly in their way, not because I always thought the action would make a big difference but because Black people were taking action against white supremacy. Like duh...

Mofos need to choose a side that best represents them WHILE promoting their overall wellness.

Like the professor at Howard said on a show last week.

Dr. Greg Carr said that we live in a society where black folks have been terrorized through violence, murders, economic sanctions and white balling that we go through life trying to survive.

So it is no surprise the stands entertainers make, or the stands that people in their day to day lives.

But as I said before black folks who ain't athletes can make the biggest stand. You stop watching and supporting shyt financially that will get bills and laws passed quicker than anything.

As the late great Dr. king said you must spread the economical hurt. Just protesting and bytching ain't gonna do it alone.

America is a hypocritical nation. They always profess this nation is about freedom and independence and equality which are all lies. This country doesn't practice what they preach. This gesture by the Seahawks is a typical "We are all Americans," bullshyt. And the media will run with it like "We must unify because at the end of the day we are Americans:mjcry:" FOH.

We've had people doing fukk shyt like this since slavery, civil war, civil rights etc. We've come this far without having the entire Aaron populace on the same page. I wouldn't be so pessimistic. Shaq jerry rice these a$$holes and a lot of other motherfukkers are on the wrong side of history here and will go down in history as such.

The only thing that matters in American capitalistic society, those who have it oppress others who don't.

You really expected a league who accepted one of the dumbest cba deals in sports history, a 10 yr deal with no opt out clause and minimal increase in salary cap even with a new TV deal. Whose best interest is for a work stoppage. People said prepare for a strike years before the old cba ended. They couldn't even stand pat for that. Which I'm sure few players didn't want this deal and knew it was ridiculous. To unify and stand together when the repercussions is a possible financial hit. That's a lot of optimism

You would think a league where they lack facial recognition. They would want to stand out and be different. Nah they rather that one person to look like a jackass being by himself cause that person came to the realization these people don't like them and never did
