Watch: Burkini social experiment shows people will stand up against Islamophobia

Colin Kaepernick | Mr Porter | The Journal

“I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses Black people and people of color. To me, this is bigger than football and it would be selfish on my part to look the other way. There are bodies in the street and people getting paid leave and getting away with murder.”

Colin Kaepernick joined other well-known sportsmen like LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony and Dwyane Wade who use their voices to press for social change. Players are not required to stand during the National Anthem and Kaepernick demonstrated his views by keep sitting.

“The National Anthem is and always will be a special part of the pre-game ceremony. It is an opportunity to honor our country and reflect on the great liberties we are afforded as its citizens. In respecting such American principles as freedom of religion and freedom of expression, we recognize the right of an individual to choose and participate, or not, in our celebration of the national anthem.”

However not everybody agreed on his actions. 

And finally: Some fans even burned Kaepernick’s jersey. 

This is additional proof that  Colin Kaepernick did the right thing.

This is glorious and even thought it doesn’t fit in the range of all the paranormal, I MUST share

It works like this: You tell Kitestring that you’re in a dangerous place or situation, and give it a time frame of when to check in on you. If you don’t reply back when it checks your status, it’ll alert your emergency contacts with a custom message you set up.

It doesn’t require you to touch anything (like bSafe) or shake your phone (like Nirbhaya) to send the distress signal. Kitestring is smarter, because it doesn’t need an action to alert people, it needs inaction.

This will never happen to me.  You can’t tell. Otherwise, if you don’t want to do for yourself, maybe among your follwers someone need this information.

I’m a man, i don’t care. You should care the more. What if it was your sister? Again, spread the word. There may be someone needingths.
