The Olympic medalist involved in one of the most famous sports protests of all time discussed Colin Kaepernick’s decision to sit during the National Anthem.
1968 Olympic medalist John Carlos made an appearance on 95.7 The Game on Monday to discuss Colin Kaepernick’s decision to sit during the National Anthem (audio). He had quite a bit to say in support of Kaepernick’s decision to sit during the National Anthem. He referenced notable names in Civil Rights history in discussing Kaepernick’s actions, and talked about its importance in potentially moving the discussion forward.
For those who don’t know who Carlos is, he is the man on the right in this iconic image.
