For over a month, athletes across the U.S. have been sitting and kneeling during "The Star Spangled Banner" in a nod to footballer Colin Kaepernick's well-documented protest against police brutality.
Now, cheerleaders are joining in on the action.
The Howard University Cheerleaders knelt while the National Anthem blasted from speakers during the AT&T Nation's Football Classic at RFK Stadium in Washington, D.C. Saturday afternoon, CNN reported.
Howard is one of the country's few historically black universities, with notable alums such as New York City's first African-American mayor, David Dinkins, and Congressman Elijah Cummings.

Sad state if a school with a once-proud history.

If a man states his opinion in the forest
And no woman is there to hear him,
Is he still wrong?

...notable alums such as New York City's first African-American mayor, David Dinkins, and Congressman Elijah Cummings.If that's the best they can turn out, they might as well close down for good.
I worked with a Howard grad, a woman with a so-called engineering degree. Totally incompetent, dumb as a rock, and racist as anyone could possibly be.

The absolute most privileged individuals in the country! Priority in hiring. Free college. Undeserved promotions. Light prosecution for real crimes. Immunity from responsibility for their actions. Ability to falsely accuse any White for anything at all, and be taken seriously.
So STFU!

I think being unpatriotic is becoming an “in” thing to do.

America’s black females many issues. And they are not addressing them in any good way.
