[QUOTE="Whiskey_Clear, post: 241652, member: 735"] May seem incongruent but I have a very different take on Robinson. I completely understand why he would feel that way. And I understand why every African American, every black person (those of Jamaican heritage for instance don't typically identify as African Americans) that lived through segregation would feel that way as well. He absolutely was discriminated against. He was treated in vile ways that have no defense. No American should ever have been treated in that manner. And the fact that the laws of this land supported that inequality and hate is shameful. Colin Kapernick did not grow up in that era and our country today is vastly different. [/QUOTE]
