[QUOTE="Northeast Stinger, post: 241631, member: 1640"] That is why I said you may not see Kap in the same light. But my point was that people were just as incensed at the time over what these other athletes did. Interestingly, my wife just sent me this link: [URL]http://www.theroot.com/articles/culture/2016/08/jackie-robinson-colin-kaepernick-star-bangled-banner/[/URL] This comports somewhat with my reading of black history as well as some of my memories. I remember that Ali at one point said he preferred the Viet Cong to the positions his own government was taking. He put his life and his career at stake to say things like that but is now remembered as one of America's greatest athletes and ambassadors for peace. [/QUOTE]
