Mariah Carey had a brief but clear message in response to the NFL’s promotion of its program.
“Happy Colin Kaepernick Appreciation Day!”
Prior to taking the knee, he played as a quarterback for the San Francisco 49ers for six seasons.
There are bodies in the street and people getting paid leave and getting away with murder."
“That is a key point here.
We listened to our players.
We needed to listen more, we needed to move faster.
We heard them and launched a social justice platform because of what Colin was protesting about.”
The NFL has yet to comment on the backlash.
