Rodney Harrison said pretty much the same thing Jim Brown is saying and the media crucified him into offering an apology for stating the truth. Harrison:... "I tell you this, I'm a black man. And Colin Kaepernick -- he's not black," Harrison said on I-heart Radio... "He cannot understand what I face and what other young black men and black people face, or people of color face, on a every single (day) basis. When you walk in a grocery store, and you might have $2,000 or $3,000 in your pocket and you go up in to a Foot Locker and they're looking at you like you about to steal something. You know, I don't think he faces those type of things that we face on a daily basis."
CBS reported this...
Before their game on Monday against the Giants, a total of 12 Browns players kneeled for the anthem. The group was notable for two big reasons: First, it was the largest group to hold a protest together in the NFL, and two, it marked the first time that a white player also took a knee.
That's flat out wrong... The first time a 'white' player took a knee is when Kaperdink took a knee, because he's just as white as he is black.
Jim Brown has been so active in civil rights virtually since day 1 of his career. But in a very intelligent and statesman-like way in a Dr King manner
If he is called a "tom" or crucified over his comments than truly, all sense of reason from the left and media is lost.
