It could be recalled that During the 49ers' third preseason game in 2016, Kaepernick began to sit during the playing of the U.S. national anthem prior to games, rather than stand as is customary, as a protest against racial injustice and systematic oppression in the country. This protest aggravated in to a national fiasco, which made president trump to instigate NFL owners to fire any player that won't respect the national anthem.
On Jan , 3, biggest stars like Rihanna, Nick cannon, Ava Duvarney, Rossana Arquette, Lebron James, common and more, didn't show up at NFL's Super Bowl 53, and some of them even trolled the games on social media.
“I will not be a spectator, viewer or supporter of the #SuperBowl today in protest of the @NFL’s racist treatment of @Kaepernick7 and its ongoing disregard for the health + well-being of all its players,” Ava DuVernay, 46, tweeted on Feb.3.
Also, Nick Cannon, 38, supported Colin by tweeting a video where he recited a poem against police brutality and America’s long, violent history of oppressing black people. “#ImWithKap #7Challenge! I am donating $7 to Colin’s Know Your Rights Camp.
The Super Bowl, would never be the same again, with racism being attached to it. We'll keep you posted on new updates.
