'The NFL might want to avoid talking about Colin Kaepernick, but there is no denying his talents and that he still should be in the league.' From LZGranderson:
While the Rams’ new home at SoFi Stadium rises in Inglewood, the team is making sure they can improve after a 2019 season that “wasn’t up to our standards.”The NFL has now released a series of PSA’s advocating for criminal justice reform with not so much as a head nod toward the player who forced its hand to get involved in the first place.
Saying the NFL has “moved on” from Kaepernick after that sham of a workout in Atlanta is akin to saying racism is behind us because the country elected a black man as president. To be clear: Kaepernick did not start the battle for racial equality. Nor is he a gatekeeper with the authority to decide who can or cannot be concerned about the issues in which his protest was based. In fact a sound argument can be made that a social justice activist who defends Fidel Castro and doesn’t bother to vote for the criminal justice reforms on the California ballot disqualifies himself from the discussion.
But that discussion is separate from how the NFL and those with business ties to the league clearly have made a series of steps that appear to make us forget. Not him as much as what the league did to him.
