So Kaepernick after disrespecting the flag and the anthem now 'unthanks' America for everything? Down with Whitey?
What about the WHITE family that took him in and raised him while the black father abandoned him? What about the America that MADE him? the country that raised him to become a star? He didn't go to no Native school on the reservation, he didn't get coached in an Indian sport. It was an American sport, school and collegiate systems and the fans that made him rich. Yeah, what about that America? Ungrateful bastard.
Colin Kaepernick, the former San Francisco 49ers quarterback, took part Thursday in the annual Unthanksgiving Day on Alcatraz Island.
The San Francisco Chronicle reported that Kaepernick made a surprise appearance at the event, which commemorates the 19-month occupation of the prison by Native American activists from 1969-1971.
“Our fight is the same fight,” Kaepernick told the crowd, in a message he posted on Twitter. “We’re all fighting for our justice, for our freedom. And realizing that we are all in this fight together makes us all the more powerful.”
The 89 activists who occupied the prison almost five decades ago demanded that it be turned into an American Indian cultural center and school.
During the commemorative event, called the Indigenous People’s Sunrise Gathering, the crowd gathers on the island to watch the sunrise on San Francisco Bay.
“It’s about reflecting, remembering and celebrating that we are still here and our culture still survives,” Michael Horse, a Native American actor, told Newsweek.
