Colin Kaepernick and His Political Opinions and Statements

According to the Washington Post article, Colin Kaepernick remained seated during the national anthem at the 49ers football game. He is known for being less media seeking player. He remained seated during the national anthem in a form of protest against police misconduct and for the black lives matter protest. "I'll continue to stand with the people who are being oppressed. To me, this is something that has to change, and when there's significant change- and I feel like that flag represents what it's suppose to represent, and this country is representing people the way it's supposed to- I'll stand." This quote is from Colin Kaepernick saying to a report. It shows he just want to see change happen within America and he is participating in politics and good a calm orderly way he is bring attention to his issue and is stirring up talk and change.
