A thoughtful piece from JarrettBell:
, came from figures in the Bay Area – where Kaepernick once starred as San Francisco 49ers quarterback.
I wanted to hear the perspective of Edwards, a major Bay Area figure in his own right, given his history. Long before he was a consultant for the 49ers and Major League Baseball, Edwards organized the Olympic Project for Human Rights, which culminated with the raised-fist, “Black Power” protests by gold medalist Tommie Smith and bronze medalist John Carlos on the medal stand at the 1968 Summer Olympics at Mexico City.
“When Kaep addressed the issues with the treatment of Black people by police, people made that situation about the flag, the anthem, disrespecting the military,” Edwards said. “When Gabe and Kerr come out and say the general gun culture must be addressed, they get credibility. This week, it’s a safe bet that, as she has in previous years, Cloud will wear orange on Friday to promote National Gun Violence Awareness Day.“What I see are more countless, recurring waves around critical issues,” he said. “These are the latest.”
