Colin Kaepernick Calls Out Jay Z for Sitting During the Super Bowl National Anthem
Last year Jay Z stunned his fan base after callously announcing we are "past kneeling" in defense of his new partnership with the NFL despite their continued blacklisting of quarterback 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].
On Sunday Jay Z and Beyoncé remained seated during the National Anthem for Super Bowl LIV and Colin had something to say about it...
On Monday Colin shared a post from former NFL wife Miko Grimes where she posted the news about Jay and Bey sitting during the anthem with the caption, "I thought we were past kneeling, tho?."
Colin's girlfriend Nessa Diab also shared a post from director Ava DuVernay about Jay Z and the NFL co-opting Colin's movement and erasing him from it.
