If you talked, laughed, or did anything other than show respect for the duration of the anthem, you were in serious trouble. Drew Brees clearly practices this, because he believes in it. Sadly, that is now condemned. Kaepernick and others don’t have to stand, but those that believe in standing don’t have to like it. Kaepernick is right to raise awareness of racial injustice. He just chose the wrong method, IMO. I think it’s the wrong method because it sowed more division than awareness. As a starting QB, including his super bowl run, Kap had the ability to speak on national television several times per week before he ever sat or kneeled.

There is not 1 fact with a source stated here. Actually the source stated "In one US survey "......what the hell is that.
Blacks are at a disadvantage because very few of them will break the cycle. Look at the success rate of a black traditional family vs the single parent families. That's your answer.
