Dr. Dre is in Colin Kaepernick's corner.
The hip-hop legend posted a photo of himself and Kaepernick kneeling with a one-word caption that said "Defiant" on his Instagram page:
The choice of the word defiant is notable since Dr. Dre was a central focus of the HBO series The Defiant Ones, which was a four-part documentary series that told his story and the story of Jimmy Iovine.
That the pair were kneeling in the photograph was also far from accidental, as Kaepernick made national headlines when he knelt during the national anthem as a means of protesting police brutality and systemic racism when he was still a member of the San Francisco 49ers.
