The NFL’s acceptable racism

A year ago, in the aftermath of the murder of George Floyd, numerous protesters throughout the world emulated former NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick by kneeling against police brutality. Members of the sports world and media who had been originally critical of Kaepernick kneeling in protest during the playing of the national anthem were suddenly admitting they were wrong, and there were even expectations that Kaepernick would soon be signed by an NFL team. What a difference a year makes!
