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?"
FU
Weird. I thought they respected the flag and were just protesting.
Who’s “we”, bitch?
Hey NIKE ... he’s your boy, be proud!
Party pooper. Or just a poop.
One of the great aspects of this Country is you are free to leave anytime. Don’t let the door hit you on the way out, Colon.
Colin, research Irish slaves.
And when Trump says they’re teaching kids to hate America the news outlets act like they don’t know what he’s talking about and say Trump is being divisive.
Can we PLEASE vote this moron off the island?
He’s vagina-whipped on that Muslim B!tch. That’s who’s really calling the shots. You have to remember Colin is biracial and was saved by a rich white family. He was actually a good QB. That Muslim chick he’s banging really did a number on him.
The inferiority complex runs deep in that guy!
why doesn’t he go live in south africa, they have free reign to attack whitey there now
F Kaepernick, F Jones, F Nike. Happy Independence Day! Hell yeah I’m white, and damn proud to know that I am superior to Kaepernick.
Hahah, ah, Colin... pretty much the same way every NFL team rejected YOU and your pathetic half-black no-talent ass.
Enjoy the suck, Colin. Because you really do.
I knew he’d ramp it up when his behavior was normalized. He’s fos. Stands for nothing. Just a publicity pig.
Send him to the cornfield.
>> Hey NIKE ... he’s your boy, be proud!
Exactly. In reality, we’re at war with corporate Marxism.
