The National Anthem protest that has grown within the NFL and other sports is getting a larger national platform. Time magazine has placed Colin Kaepernick on the cover of the October 1, 2016 edition. The magazine tweeted out the video below of the cover, with it starting as the American flag, and then Kap appearing on a knee. It’s a pretty cool dissolve to the cover. It appears this is the accompanying article.
We’ve heard more and more how this has developed a national discussion. The focus initially was on the knee, but it has slowly pivoted toward the important underlying issues.
