Weirdest quote i heard yesterday was an nba player saying "Kneeling for the anthem hasn't done anything so we need to do something else".
Do they really think a white cop in wisconsin when dealing with a person is thinking about an nba player kneeling?

It's about the attention that it brings.
If they do absolutely nothing and go about their business, what will change then?
At least they are generating conversation and awareness.
Doing nothing has been everyone's answer for too long now. The world isn't going to change all at once, little pushes like this is what initiates change.
