This week Jay Z caught heat after taking a position with the NFL after they banned Colin Kaepernick for kneeling during the national anthem to bring awareness to unpunished police brutality in the Black community [click here if you missed that].
Jay speaks about his new gig and says we've moved beyond kneeling...
Jay Z explains,
"I think we've moved past kneeling and I think it's time to go into actionable items."
"Now that we all know what's going on, what are we going to do? How are we going to stop it? Because the kneeling was not about a job, it was about injustice."
"No, I don't want people to stop protesting at all. Kneeling — I know we're stuck on it because it's a real thing — but kneeling is a form of protest. I support protest across the board. We need to bring light to the issue. I think everyone knows what the issue is — we're done with that. We all know the issue now. OK, next. What are we moving (on to) next? ...And I'm not minimizing that part of it because that has to happen, that's a necessary part of the process. But now that we all know what's going on, what are we going to do? How are we going to stop it? Because the kneeling was not about a job, it was about injustice."
