Colin is a true tragic hero. He paid a very high price for his public stance, but I am convinced the impact would have been much less if the orange jesus hadn't been a presidential candidate/president at the time.

I continue to wish him and his family all the best and much success in the future. In spite of all the bigots in the NFL and the fascist party.

All great points, Carron.

Why is ‘whether Black college athletes should stop playing at schools where the gerrymandering is taking place’ even be a question? Critical thinking white audiences should also boycott school & professional teams in states where gerrymandering is taking place.

Perhaps we should resist watching football games and let the sports world know it’s because of the racism.

My father pointed out to me just how blind America has been to racism back in 1953. He said the reason we were as blind as we were was that too many people were making too much money from discrimination..

Today my father is STILL spot on right as rain. We still treat others like dog do-do when our pocket book stands to benefit. And nowhere is this more prevalent then in the south. Racism is to the south like ham is to cheese.

That is a very intriguing idea to have people refuse to play for schools who gerrymandered their states, especially post Callais. We all have ways to be heard!

There are many things that can be done. The problem is that our bottom line could be fatter if we deemed some as "cheap labor.

We are sick.

Is there actually any difference in the way black athletes are treated in Oxford, Miss., and Baton Rouge, La.?
