United We Stand: Rally for Colin Kaepernick, August 23, 2017, was hosted by Shaun King — “Journalist,” “Justice” League NYC, The People’s Consortium for “Human and Civil Rights,” Inc. from 5 PM to 8 PM outside the NFL headquarters in NYC. (In other words, every soc/commie/prog/fascist organization was there to hate on a “racist” America.)
The People’s Consortium for Human and Civil Rights, Inc., Justice League NYC, Tamika D Mallory, Symone D. Sanders, Rainbow PUSH Coalition, Pastor Jamal Bryant, Mark Thompson, Frank Madison Reid III, Color of Change, faith-based leaders and allies rallied for a “nonviolent” direct action to support Colin Kaepernick.

Come find us by the “free food” sign!!!
Symone Sanders, former national press secretary for Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders, was introduced by her co-emcee Mark Thompson. He said, “She is known for pushing back against those devils on CNN.”
Other speakers at the event included U.S. representative for New York’s 5th congressional district Gregory Meeks, president of the NAACP New York State Conference Dr. Hazel Dukes, national co-chair for the Women’s March Tamika Mallory, pastor and social activist Jamal Bryant, and Stephen A. Green, president of The People’s Consortium.
WHO is COLIN K and Why are we here?
Colin Kaepernick, a former quarterback for the San Francisco 49ers, caused conflict last season by kneeling during the national anthem before games to protest police brutality and racial oppression. He inspired several other players to follow suit or make similar gestures, leading to debate about whether athletes should publicly engage in political discourse — and how actively.
Kaepernick is a free agent without a team. And while he is not at the top of his game, as he was when he led the 49ers to the Super Bowl four years ago, many analysts believe teams are refusing to sign him because of his political nature, not his ability.
++ Nakia E, Cook sang “Lift Every Voice and Sing” the “black national anthem, the ‘real’ national anthem.” (Simone Sanders)++
Lift Every Voice and Sing by James Weldon Johnson
Lift every voice and sing
Till earth and heaven ring,
Ring with the harmonies of Liberty;
Let our rejoicing rise
High as the listening skies,
Let it resound loud … [tape begins here] … as the rolling sea.
Sing a song full of the faith that the dark past has taught us, Sing a song full of the hope that the present has brought us,
Facing the rising sun of our new day begun
Let us march on till victory is won.] END
“Lift Every Voice and Sing” was first written as a poem. Created by James Weldon Johnson, it was performed for the first time by 500 school children in celebration of President Lincoln’s Birthday on February 12, 1900 in Jacksonville, FL. … adopted by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) as its official song.
Part 1 slideshow
“…. As Kaepernick’s protest drew criticism, so did the rally in support of him. A small group of protesters stood across Park Ave., some waved a Thin Blue Line flag meant to honor living and fallen law enforcement officers while a man held a sign with the words ‘COLIN THE COMMIE.'”
“They are alleging that there is racism involved in Kaepernick not signing in the N.F.L., but he’s a free agent to sign or not sign,” said Karen Braun, who was among the JDL counter-protesters. “Was race the intent? No one can prove that.” [WHAS11-ABC]
Part 2 slide show
The JDL was counter-protesting while racist hatemonger Linda Sarsour joined the list of speakers spewing anti-white and anti-America screeds.

VIDEO of the racist mob surrounding and threatening the JDL, plus excerpt of Linda Sarsour’s racist screed at the Colin K protest.
Another video excerpt of Linda Sarsour’s racist screed:
Linda Sarsour: “We will not be silenced by blue lives matter—by white supremacists—by neo Nazis—by right wing Zionists. Expect us anytime there is a fight for justice or a fight against injustice.”
Sarsour added, “You better expect us because we will be there and we will be there on the front lines of justice. That means putting our lives on the lines of justice. That being said, if you are not ready to put your life on the line for freedom, take that word out of your mouth.” [Daily Caller]

COMMENTS – pro and con from their Facebook page:
“With you all the way Kaep and the other players who have the courage to throw a fist in the air, and or stand shoulder to shoulder with those players who protest.”
“What has the flag done for our people? It’s a symbol of country built on hate, genocide, oppression and racism. FUCK the flag.”
“The funniest part about this rally is that the NFL league office doesn’t do the hiring, individual teams do. What a waste of time. The NFL itself has not punished any players for kneeling during the anthem. This is 100% a complete waste of time.”
“Why have a rally for that lazy traitorous coward I hope the. NFL gets completely shut down over this”
“In my eyes anyone who doesn’t honor our flag is a coward.”
“If he wants to take a knee in protest, he has absolutely has that right. What’s really at question here is does an employer have a right to fire him for it?”
“NFL contracts are not guaranteed except for a pre-determined amount at the contract signing. Kap made $16M in 2016 and his poor performance plus the system that the new head coach wanted to implement did not warrant the 49ers to keep him for the same amount in 2017. Kap opted out because he knew the 49ers would cut him anyway.

“A man may be paid great sums for his labors and YET his employer does not own his SOUL. If they choose to kneel and understand the consequences of kneeling (monetary fines or whatever sanctions imposed by NFL or team owners) then so be it! That is their right and each person must act according to their conscience. “
“We are protesting against NFL for violating Kapernick right to earn a living for his peaceful protest. Boycotting NFL is standing for Justice !!!!”
“He didn’t protest a country where he lived a lavish life with a wonderful adopted family or the country that pays him millions to play a game. He disrepected not only this country but every person that has served and paid the ultimate sacrifice so he could live in a country that allows him to be an entitled punk with zero respect for this country. It’s all about attention and it’s sickening.”

“What a complete joke. A spoiled child that threw a tantrum and was rejected by the country that made him rich. Maybe he’ll have to get a real job.”

If black lives mattered to blacks, they would show that they care about themselves and others, as it is, they only care about welfare and whatever they can get as gifts or steal from appeasers. linda sarsour, like it is said in the qur’an, is a women, who has only half the intelligence of a man, the man directing her is an idiot, making her half of one.

And Linda sarsour is a sourpus jihadi and anyone who disrespects the flag , anthem should be penalized $10,000 or 5% of their assets for first offense.
or this will continue and get worse.
Like jihadis calling for not honoring American soldiers on memorial day http://bit.ly/2qvcHov
Its stupidity to allow such crap in name of Free speech while they shut down all conservative voices who speak out against them.

I don’t get it. If this country was never “great” as one of these criminals posters reads, then why these scumbags decided to come here?!?!? And where are the NSA spy scums, FBI, DHS, CIA’s wasters who record our every move for when time comes for them to jump on us with the needed evidence to destroy us?!?! Here’s EVIDENTLY a criminal who need to be Ejected out of this country, Yet they are still here. And not only that, because of that foul sign, chances are they are going to Prosper and remain.

“It is time”? Please consider turning your talk into Hard Action. Lots of churches are closing while mosques are replacing them in this country. Keep an eye in your area on such activity, go to any town hall meeting that has to do with that and oppose the building of mosques. They don’t have the right to Islamize the US, especially since in their countries Christianity is SHAMELESSLY made into a full fledged Crime!

Agreed. When I was overseas with the US Navy, we always laughed that when the women yelled, “Yankee go home” they really meant, “Yankee go home, and take me with you.”

He was a lousy QB. What saved him at first was running ability, but that goes down quickly with age and injuries, and doesn’t fit the systems most teams use.
He might be able to get a job later in the season, after some QBs get injured, and a team is desperate for a replacement.

How far will all this nonsense go? The next accusation from the ultra left media and the antiFa will be that Trump is responsible for Hurricane Harvey and the damage that it resulted in. While kaepernick does have the right to present his position, and I will never deny him that right, I am also privileged to criticize his conduct as being insulting to everything that I believe being an American is all about. Even if the management of the NFL teams are refusing to sign him because of his protest, I cannot object to their right to protest in their own way. The rubbish that spills from the mouth of people like Sarsour is likewise subject to criticism, and I would stand in front of the line to criticize that women who cannot ever recognize that her people (the “Palestinians”) are part of the problem and because of their conduct a two state solution may well be an impossibility. If you are critical, you must also realize that what you do or say should leave you with the expectation that others will disagree, and you would be expected to face the non-violent reaction of those who disagree. I see it as simple as that. When the left liberals and the antiFa understand the difference between non-violent criticism and violent criticism, I, for one, will applaud that conduct, but in the meantime, I, and everyone like me has the right to have a different critical view and the other side needs to accept that.

Just a reminder … the Left is using all it’s power to demonetize, defund, and demonize our patriots like Pamela Geller.
Left-wing bigots should have no ‘free speech’ without resistance when these hate-filled, ignorant freaks do everything in their power to War on Reality and silence those who speak out against their violent agenda.

This event was “hosted by Shaun King — ‘Journalist,’ ‘Justice’ League NYC,” and NOT black. Can anyone say, “Rachel Dolezal?”
Pathological altruism on display. This fraud has completely taken on the identity of a black person in true Zelig fashion. A perfect candidate for Antifa.

Bar Kochba put up a helluva fight against the Roman Empire. The Romans had to drag legions all the way from Northwestern Europe to end his rebellion. Bar Kochba also had zero tolerance for Roman collaborators.
Nice rendition Underzog.

Thank you, Izlamis Tyranny. I was marching — decades ago — in the Israeli day parade in the big apple. Fearless leader Fern, then head of the JDL, was singing this song and I begged her to teach me the lyrics.

A gifted Negro, paid millions, adulated by thousands, living the dream of America becomes one of the most UNGRATEFUL ass on the planet.
Is this how it is suppose to work for a Negro that won the football lottery?? Either he must be very stupid or just very lucky and stupid.
We had another one for 8 years that won the ultmate political lottery and he became a terribly ungrateful ass also. In fact, he turned traitor. Now how is dat possible???
I’m beginning to think there is something wrong with the Negro himself. Ingrained in him already. Much as the way Moslems are. Except for the negro it comes by race, instead of religion.

iSLAM is a political ideology and not a “RELIGION” – islam was conceived by a CRIMINAL AND IS A CON-GAME FOR any and all with criminal intent. Islam is a LIE right from the start and to link it to religion shows that the con-job(the Lie) of islam is indeed working and in the end those who are dhimmi-who pander to the criminals of islam starting right from those who wrote the filthy-koran will be first to be beheaded because they will not FIGHT against what is wrong and all of islam is indeed wrong!

Gee, a white mother and white step-parents.
Not since Paul Robeson has there been such a black icon.
But the NFL, and the rest of the country weren’t pleased with getting Kapernick’s middle finger during the national anthem.
Actions have consequences, don’t they?

Kaepernick had been hired by the 49ers for his athletic ability and not as a warrior for “social justice”. If he and his ilk do not like the US then they should find a country they deem more suitable.
But tell me, in what other country can a black orphan be adopted by white parents, given a wholesome upbringing, earn a college degree by playing football, and become a multimillionaire by the age of 29?

Games are not the place for political statements. People pay money, of which most have to work hard for, they expect a few hours of entertainment and levity. They did not sign up to be held hostage to the political ideology of anyone else. Don’t support the games/sports. Just don’t go, just don’t watch it. It can be done. Start a garden, take the kids to a museum or park, volunteer at a mission or such.

They have forgotten what the contributions of different cultures have meant to various societies. There is the bad, as we have seen from history, and as we see now, but there is also the good. If Caucasians are so bad, then why is one section of the world struggling to empty into the Western lands? Do you see any exodus headed elsewhere?

Linda Sourshit comes to my country with the approbation of Muhammad to make it Muslim or destroy it. We have too much freedom of speech and we need more or better laws to deal with radicals who want to destroy my country. Russia and China at least keeps these radicals down and that’s what we need.

A majority of Americans, including white Americans, recently elected a black man to be their President, twice.
But it’s never enough. Here we are still in the midst of a never-ending racism crisis.

Agreed.
Notice how he’s silent about his white roots. He writes a book celebrating his black bastard Muslim father who abandoned him at four years of age, but he never speaks of his white mother, and he throws his white maternal grandparents, who raised him, under the bus suggesting they’re racist.
Blacks were going to win the ’08 election. They could’ve put anyone they wanted on the ballot, and they picked a monumental fool. Such a wasted opportunity. So many other blacks they could’ve chosen who would’ve made outstanding presidents.
The woman the Left put on the ballot is a monumental fool too. Out of all the American women, they picked Hillary.

Was Colin Kaepernick’s Muslim Girlfriend Behind Protest?
A recent report indicates that Colin Kaepernick’s Muslim girlfriend Nessa Diab was behind his decision to not stand during the national anthem.
The report from sports gossip blog Terez Owens states, “As the entire world knows by now, San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick refused to stand for the National Anthem in Friday’s pre-season game against Green Bay because he was protesting ‘black oppression’ in the United States. We’re now hearing that it was actually his girlfriend Nessa’s idea for Colin to protest. Colin and his girlfriend, Nessa Diab, an MTV DJ, are still planning an Islamic-style wedding.
