Dude, slavery is dead. Jim Crow is dead. The beatings ended long ago; beatings that Kaepernick never experienced; beating that I, or any other white person today inflicted. Black people are as free as I am. The only thing holding them back is them. There too many examples of HUGE success by black people to support that.
This country will never heal until black people can find it in them to forgive the past and move on. I'll be damned if I'm going to sit here and be cast something that I, my father, or my grandfather were never a part of. You want to remain in some interminable state of perceived oppression and be miserable over it, have at it. You want to believe I'm a bigot because I disagree with what these football players are doing, I............ DON'T..............CARE! All you're doing is showing how narrow-minded you are. I'm moving on, with or without you. Stay miserable. I don't care.
so racial injustice ended with Jim crow in your opinion?
The BLM movement is telling you that the beatings haven't ended. You might think that blacks have it exactly the same as you, but they don't. your insistence that they get over it because you don't see a problem is ridiculous. This isn't about slavery or Jim Crow, it is about right now. Its funny how the same people who defend flying the confederate flag want black people to forget the past
