Kaepernick on July Fourth: 'We reject your celebration of white supremacy'
The Hill ^ | 07/04/2020 | Brook Seipel

Posted on 07/04/2020 7:24:24 PM PDT by Kevin in California

Former NFL star and activist Colin Kaepernick marked July Fourth by sharing a video of actor James Earl Jones reciting Frederick Douglass's historic speech, "What to the Slave is the Fourth of July" with Kaepernick calling the holiday a "celebration of white supremacy."

The video shows images of the Declaration of Independence, slaves, Klu Klux Klan members, lynchings and police brutality as Jones's voice narrates in the background: "Fellow-citizens, pardon me, allow me to ask, why am I called upon to speak here to-day? What have I, or those I represent, to do with your national independence? Are the great principles of political freedom and of natural justice, embodied in that Declaration of Independence, extended to us?"

The inferiority complex runs deep in that guy!


I was thinking the same thing and then saw your post. He’s a person with a low self-esteem being used by those whose goal is to ruin America. I saw it all the time when I taught. . .Bullies using those with an inferiority complex to do their dirty work. I think that is what is in play here. As far as the girlfriend. . .perhaps those who raised him didn’t introduce him to Jesus.-

There were how many crates of hair shipped in from China illegally that were found just this week?

How many of the dark beotches are paying for slaves in China to be harvested of hair just for them to look white-ish? To say nothing of Nike being totally in the sack with China, using slave labor, and owning sports teams, Colleges and playas.
