Bravo to Colin Kaepernick for his very visible protest and to Chip Kelly for his tolerance. I honor Colin's action as I did Tommy Smith and John Carlos's in Mexico City, 1968.
I am fortunate to be a citizen of a country where I am not compelled to show patriotism.
I am very happy to honor the flag and my country at national celebrations such as Independence Day, Veterans' Day, etc., but the issue goes beyond America's racism.
