It's a plague sweeping across the world, called HUBS (Head Up Butt Syndrome).

Actually, those are his adopted parents. His real parents were a bi-racial couple in Milwaukee. His black father left his mother destitute, to birth him alone.
I get it. The half that is white willingly accepts the multi million dollar contract and endorsements while the half that is black rants about racial inequality and minutes later the combined man fails to advance his offense six inches. Sounds kind of like Obama.
'America oppresses'? WTF?
Don't you guys have a TWO-TERM BLACK President?
Or have I been looking a science-fantasy/alternative history for the last almost eight years?

Jim Brown is one of the most racist dudes ever.I stand for Colin's right to do what he is.
Go find Jim Browns' comments from his interview on NFL Network.
Why do we play the Anthem at the start of a sporting event, anyway ?

Jim Brown on Colin Kaepernick: 'I am with him 100 percent'
To be honest, I don't like professional sports, if you do, that's fine, I would rather be working out in the shop.
At the same time, I also dislike conspicuous jingoism. The "National Anthem" granted was a poem written during and revised after the war of 1812, certainly an important event in our nation's history. However much like the pledge of allegiance none of it was baked into the cake in a way the founders intended, and instead was an outgrowth of the strange nationalistic fervor in the 1910-1950 period. Which by the way, was probably the most disgusting period in our nation's history in terms of growth of government both in size, power and scope starting with Woodrow Wilson, and ending with FDR, until it kicked off again in the late 60's.
Personally, I doubt a football quarterback is going to wax philosophical in this way, but the kind of nationalism that made the national anthem official is decidedly european, not american.
Lol!Too bad the little turd's gonna be riding the pine this season... I'd pay to see Sherman and the Legion of Boom give him a few extra new bones.
You are entitled to your opinion but you do realize we WON Two World Wars during this period? Had we not we'd be starting the day with Gott Mit Uns or wishing our rice ration was bigger than a cup a day while we completed the Point Barrow to Tierra Del Fuego high speed railway for the Emperor. Perhaps the Battle Hymn of the Republic would be more appropriate? Let me sing you the songs of my people......
It's an American thing....if we have to explain it....
