"content": "\u003cp>Less than a month from the start of the regular season, NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick remains a player without a team.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kaepernick took a knee during the playing of the national anthem before games last season. He said he was protesting treatment of people in black communities during a time of great tension sparked by police shootings of African-Americans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But his actions sparked outrage. Critics called his pregame protests anti-American, even accusing him of being against the military, a charge Kaepernick has repeatedly denied. Bringing awareness and sparking social change were his only motivations, he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His supporters now allege league owners are freezing out Kaepernick -- not signing him because of his political beliefs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Collusion?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Collusion among NFL owners is hard to prove. There's no evidence of any backroom deals being made. Recently, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell was \u003ca href=\"http://stats.csnphilly.com/fb/story.asp?i=20170803184921936059208&ref=hea&tm=&src=\">asked about the suspicions\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Teams make decisions based on what's in the best interest of their team,\" Goodell said. \"And they make those decisions individually.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, it's hard not to wonder as one quarterback after the next gets signed, and \u003ca href=\"https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/ranking-24-qbs-signed-before-kaepernick-including-new-ram-dan-orlovsky/\">it's \u003cem>not\u003c/em> Colin Kaepernick\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This week, the Miami Dolphins signed veteran Jay Cutler, who was retired and said his \u003ca href=\"http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/football/ct-jay-cutler-kristin-cavallari-dolphins-20170807-story.html\">wife talked him into playing again\u003c/a>. In late July, the Baltimore Ravens signed David Olson, who'd never played in the NFL but did see action in the Arena Football League. Seattle, the only team Kaepernick visited, \u003ca href=\"http://www.syracuse.com/sports/index.ssf/2017/06/seattle_seahawks_skip_colin_kaepernick_sign_austin_davis_as_backup_qb.html\">eventually didn't sign him either\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll, \"He [Kaepernick] is a starter in this league. We have a starter, but he's a starter in this league and I can't imagine that somebody won't give him a chance to play.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whether a starting player or backup, Kaepernick appears NFL-ready. He led the San Francisco 49ers to two NFC conference championship games. Following the 2012 season, he led the Niners to the Super Bowl, where they lost by 3 points to the Ravens.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's ancient history to teams that want to win \u003cem>now\u003c/em>. But Kaepernick also measures up based on more recent statistics. Last season he started 11 games for the 49ers, one of the worst teams in the NFL. They won only one of the games Kaepernick started. Still, he threw 16 touchdown passes and had only four interceptions. His touchdown-to-interception ratio ranked \u003ca href=\"https://www.sportingcharts.com/nfl/stats/touchdown-to-interception-ratio/2016/\">7th in the NFL\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A \u003cem>Washington Post \u003c/em>article in May proclaimed Kaepernick \"\u003ca href=\"https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/fancy-stats/wp/2017/05/16/colin-kaepernick-is-statistically-superior-to-half-of-the-nfls-backups-and-deserves-a-job/?utm_term=.77326aa56ca5\">statistically superior to half of the NFL's backup quarterbacks\u003c/a>.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When he declared himself a free agent in March, Kaepernick probably thought he had a good chance to sign with another team. Although he'd slipped from his form during those winning years with the 49ers, he's a proven quarterback -- and proven quarterbacks are a must for NFL success. No one knows that better than Kaepernick's fellow players, who are starting to wonder why he still doesn't have a job.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"My original position was I thought that the situation last year with him taking a knee didn't have anything to do with it [Kaepernick not being signed],\" Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Doug Baldwin said last week. \"After viewing what's going on, I've got to take that back. I definitely think that the league, the owners are trying to send a message of, 'stay in between the lines.' It's frustrating because you want to have guys who are willing to speak out about things that they believe in, whether you agree with it or not. But I think that's definitely playing a role now, more so than I thought it was going to.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also last week, Philadelphia Eagles defensive back Malcolm Jenkins \u003ca href=\"https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/eagles-malcolm-jenkins-calls-teams-cowards-for-not-signing-colin-kaepernick/\">blasted teams for not signing Kaepernick\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This is just some other teams being, quite honestly, cowards,\" Jenkins said. \"To say that they're afraid of backlash to sign someone to make their team better, when fans' input has never been in the equation when it comes to signing people in the past. It's certain owners' way of making an example out of [Kaepernick] to discourage anybody else from doing what he did.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Idea of collusion is \"crazy\"\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In May, New York Giants co-owner John Mara, who's been with the team for nearly 25 years, waded into the \u003ca href=\"https://www.si.com/mmqb/2017/05/25/nfl-colin-kaepernick-new-york-city-support-rally-nfl-headquarters\">Kaepernick controversy\u003c/a> with comments about fan reaction to the quarterback's protests.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"All my years being in the league,\" Mara said, \"I have never received more emotional mail from people than I did about that issue. [People wrote] 'If any of your players ever do that, we are never coming to another Giants game.' It wasn't one or two letters. It was a lot. It's an emotional, emotional issue for a lot of people, more so than any other issue I've run into.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, Mara this week \u003ca href=\"http://www.nj.com/giants/index.ssf/2017/08/giants_owner_john_mara_says_idea_of_colin_kaeperni.html\">denied any collusion\u003c/a> by him or other owners.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Anybody that thinks that there's been any conversations going on among teams about Colin Kaepernick is crazy,\" Mara said. \"That just is not the case. I think there are certain issues obviously that go along with Colin Kaepernick, and that may have scared some teams away, but there is absolutely no blackball going on here. I just don't see that at all.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>History repeating\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Kaepernick's supporters say it's hypocritical for owners to be scared away by Kaepernick's politics, considering the examples of bad behavior by players and others tied to the league in recent years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It doesn't really matter if it's collusion or culture,\" said sociologist Harry Edwards. \"But you cannot have people [in the NFL] associated with double murders, dog fighting, rape, drug use, vehicular manslaughter and violence against women, from owners all the way down to rookie players ... [and] a man who takes a knee, and says we can be better [as a society], cannot even be given a chance to compete for a roster spot.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Edwards is a professor emeritus in sociology at UC Berkeley. He's been a staff consultant with the 49ers since 1985, has advised Kaepernick since the player's rookie season in 2011, and has been a leading figure at the nexus of sports, politics and activism for the past 50 years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And Edwards sees history potentially repeating itself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think the league's handling of [the Kaepernick situation] has been atrocious,\" Edwards said. \"I think the sports establishment has learned nothing in the last 50 years, going back to Muhammad Ali.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By vilifying Ali and his controversial political stands, \"the sports establishment made Ali a martyr,\" said Edwards, \"so he became widely celebrated.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Edwards said he sent an email to Roger Goodell \"urging him not to make Colin Kaepernick a martyr.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Let him play football,\" he said he told Goodell. \"Let him do what he's going to do and manage it. We have to manage these things we can neither eliminate nor avoid.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nearly \u003ca href=\"http://nebula.wsimg.com/1abf21ec51fd8dafbecfc2e0319a6091?AccessKeyId=DAC3A56D8FB782449D2A&disposition=0&alloworigin=1\">70 percent of the NFL's players are African-American\u003c/a>. Edwards said if support grows among those players for Kaepernick and Kaepernick's message, \"it could get too complicated for them [the league] to manage at any level.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At this point, Kaepernick appears to \u003ca href=\"http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/18805744/colin-kaepernick-stand-national-anthem-next-season\">have moved beyond protest\u003c/a> to programs, Edwards said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"He [Kaepernick] has \u003ca href=\"https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/2017/04/20/colin-kaepernick-donations/100699392/\">spent almost $2 million\u003c/a> in money, time, material support. All kinds of things in order to wake people up that we can all do better.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"That seems to be something the NFL would want modeled,\" Edwards said. \"Not only should they be embracing him [Kaepernick], they should be looking for his input. How do we [the NFL] get better in terms of how we manage these situations?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The NFL did not respond to an NPR request for comment on the current situation with Kaepernick.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Protest still to come\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kaepernick has not spoken publicly during this period of time; he hasn't weighed in on the discussion about why he doesn't have a job and possible collusion. Edwards hasn't spoken recently with Kaepernick but said he has talked to members of \"his inner circle and management team.\" Through them, Edwards says Kaepernick is focused on getting a job in football.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Supporters, however, are speaking up. This week, several groups announced they'll hold a public rally in support of Kaepernick on Aug. 23 in front of the NFL's New York City headquarters. Among those announcing support for Kaepernick was filmmaker Spike Lee, although Lee denied he's \u003ca href=\"http://www.dailynews.com/social-affairs/20170808/spike-lee-denies-organizing-colin-kaepernick-support-rally\">organizing the rally\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And a new petition is targeting the NFL and its sponsors. Petition organizers are trying to get a million signatures by the start of the NFL regular season on Sept. 7.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And they're urging people to boycott NFL games if Colin Kaepernick doesn't play this season.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Recently, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell was \u003ca href=\"http://stats.csnphilly.com/fb/story.asp?i=20170803184921936059208&ref=hea&tm=&src=\">asked about the suspicions\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Teams make decisions based on what's in the best interest of their team,\" Goodell said. \"And they make those decisions individually.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, it's hard not to wonder as one quarterback after the next gets signed, and \u003ca href=\"https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/ranking-24-qbs-signed-before-kaepernick-including-new-ram-dan-orlovsky/\">it's \u003cem>not\u003c/em> Colin Kaepernick\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This week, the Miami Dolphins signed veteran Jay Cutler, who was retired and said his \u003ca href=\"http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/football/ct-jay-cutler-kristin-cavallari-dolphins-20170807-story.html\">wife talked him into playing again\u003c/a>. In late July, the Baltimore Ravens signed David Olson, who'd never played in the NFL but did see action in the Arena Football League. Seattle, the only team Kaepernick visited, \u003ca href=\"http://www.syracuse.com/sports/index.ssf/2017/06/seattle_seahawks_skip_colin_kaepernick_sign_austin_davis_as_backup_qb.html\">eventually didn't sign him either\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll, \"He [Kaepernick] is a starter in this league. We have a starter, but he's a starter in this league and I can't imagine that somebody won't give him a chance to play.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whether a starting player or backup, Kaepernick appears NFL-ready. He led the San Francisco 49ers to two NFC conference championship games. Following the 2012 season, he led the Niners to the Super Bowl, where they lost by 3 points to the Ravens.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's ancient history to teams that want to win \u003cem>now\u003c/em>. But Kaepernick also measures up based on more recent statistics. Last season he started 11 games for the 49ers, one of the worst teams in the NFL. They won only one of the games Kaepernick started. Still, he threw 16 touchdown passes and had only four interceptions. His touchdown-to-interception ratio ranked \u003ca href=\"https://www.sportingcharts.com/nfl/stats/touchdown-to-interception-ratio/2016/\">7th in the NFL\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A \u003cem>Washington Post \u003c/em>article in May proclaimed Kaepernick \"\u003ca href=\"https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/fancy-stats/wp/2017/05/16/colin-kaepernick-is-statistically-superior-to-half-of-the-nfls-backups-and-deserves-a-job/?utm_term=.77326aa56ca5\">statistically superior to half of the NFL's backup quarterbacks\u003c/a>.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When he declared himself a free agent in March, Kaepernick probably thought he had a good chance to sign with another team. Although he'd slipped from his form during those winning years with the 49ers, he's a proven quarterback -- and proven quarterbacks are a must for NFL success. No one knows that better than Kaepernick's fellow players, who are starting to wonder why he still doesn't have a job.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"My original position was I thought that the situation last year with him taking a knee didn't have anything to do with it [Kaepernick not being signed],\" Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Doug Baldwin said last week. \"After viewing what's going on, I've got to take that back. I definitely think that the league, the owners are trying to send a message of, 'stay in between the lines.' It's frustrating because you want to have guys who are willing to speak out about things that they believe in, whether you agree with it or not. But I think that's definitely playing a role now, more so than I thought it was going to.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also last week, Philadelphia Eagles defensive back Malcolm Jenkins \u003ca href=\"https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/eagles-malcolm-jenkins-calls-teams-cowards-for-not-signing-colin-kaepernick/\">blasted teams for not signing Kaepernick\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This is just some other teams being, quite honestly, cowards,\" Jenkins said. \"To say that they're afraid of backlash to sign someone to make their team better, when fans' input has never been in the equation when it comes to signing people in the past. It's certain owners' way of making an example out of [Kaepernick] to discourage anybody else from doing what he did.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Idea of collusion is \"crazy\"\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In May, New York Giants co-owner John Mara, who's been with the team for nearly 25 years, waded into the \u003ca href=\"https://www.si.com/mmqb/2017/05/25/nfl-colin-kaepernick-new-york-city-support-rally-nfl-headquarters\">Kaepernick controversy\u003c/a> with comments about fan reaction to the quarterback's protests.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"All my years being in the league,\" Mara said, \"I have never received more emotional mail from people than I did about that issue. [People wrote] 'If any of your players ever do that, we are never coming to another Giants game.' It wasn't one or two letters. It was a lot. It's an emotional, emotional issue for a lot of people, more so than any other issue I've run into.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, Mara this week \u003ca href=\"http://www.nj.com/giants/index.ssf/2017/08/giants_owner_john_mara_says_idea_of_colin_kaeperni.html\">denied any collusion\u003c/a> by him or other owners.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Anybody that thinks that there's been any conversations going on among teams about Colin Kaepernick is crazy,\" Mara said. \"That just is not the case. I think there are certain issues obviously that go along with Colin Kaepernick, and that may have scared some teams away, but there is absolutely no blackball going on here. I just don't see that at all.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>History repeating\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Kaepernick's supporters say it's hypocritical for owners to be scared away by Kaepernick's politics, considering the examples of bad behavior by players and others tied to the league in recent years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It doesn't really matter if it's collusion or culture,\" said sociologist Harry Edwards. \"But you cannot have people [in the NFL] associated with double murders, dog fighting, rape, drug use, vehicular manslaughter and violence against women, from owners all the way down to rookie players ... [and] a man who takes a knee, and says we can be better [as a society], cannot even be given a chance to compete for a roster spot.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Edwards is a professor emeritus in sociology at UC Berkeley. He's been a staff consultant with the 49ers since 1985, has advised Kaepernick since the player's rookie season in 2011, and has been a leading figure at the nexus of sports, politics and activism for the past 50 years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And Edwards sees history potentially repeating itself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think the league's handling of [the Kaepernick situation] has been atrocious,\" Edwards said. \"I think the sports establishment has learned nothing in the last 50 years, going back to Muhammad Ali.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By vilifying Ali and his controversial political stands, \"the sports establishment made Ali a martyr,\" said Edwards, \"so he became widely celebrated.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Edwards said he sent an email to Roger Goodell \"urging him not to make Colin Kaepernick a martyr.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Let him play football,\" he said he told Goodell. \"Let him do what he's going to do and manage it. We have to manage these things we can neither eliminate nor avoid.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nearly \u003ca href=\"http://nebula.wsimg.com/1abf21ec51fd8dafbecfc2e0319a6091?AccessKeyId=DAC3A56D8FB782449D2A&disposition=0&alloworigin=1\">70 percent of the NFL's players are African-American\u003c/a>. Edwards said if support grows among those players for Kaepernick and Kaepernick's message, \"it could get too complicated for them [the league] to manage at any level.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At this point, Kaepernick appears to \u003ca href=\"http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/18805744/colin-kaepernick-stand-national-anthem-next-season\">have moved beyond protest\u003c/a> to programs, Edwards said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"He [Kaepernick] has \u003ca href=\"https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/2017/04/20/colin-kaepernick-donations/100699392/\">spent almost $2 million\u003c/a> in money, time, material support. All kinds of things in order to wake people up that we can all do better.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"That seems to be something the NFL would want modeled,\" Edwards said. \"Not only should they be embracing him [Kaepernick], they should be looking for his input. How do we [the NFL] get better in terms of how we manage these situations?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The NFL did not respond to an NPR request for comment on the current situation with Kaepernick.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Protest still to come\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kaepernick has not spoken publicly during this period of time; he hasn't weighed in on the discussion about why he doesn't have a job and possible collusion. Edwards hasn't spoken recently with Kaepernick but said he has talked to members of \"his inner circle and management team.\" Through them, Edwards says Kaepernick is focused on getting a job in football.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Supporters, however, are speaking up. This week, several groups announced they'll hold a public rally in support of Kaepernick on Aug. 23 in front of the NFL's New York City headquarters. Among those announcing support for Kaepernick was filmmaker Spike Lee, although Lee denied he's \u003ca href=\"http://www.dailynews.com/social-affairs/20170808/spike-lee-denies-organizing-colin-kaepernick-support-rally\">organizing the rally\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And a new petition is targeting the NFL and its sponsors. Petition organizers are trying to get a million signatures by the start of the NFL regular season on Sept. 7.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

His protest against police brutality and racial injustice has sparked widespread criticism, with many blasting him as unpatriotic. But there's also been a growing show of support as other pro athletes and even high school students have joined in their own Kaepernick-inspired protests. KQED Senior Editor for California Politics and Government Scott Shafer hosts a discussion about athletes and activism.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Guests:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>• Ann Killion, San Francisco Chronicle sports columnist\u003cbr>\n• Hamed Aleaziz, San Francisco Chronicle reporter\u003cbr>\n• Aimee Allison, Senior Vice President of PowerPac+\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Cannabis at a Crossroads: Humboldt County's Experiment\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nPeople from around the world have been rushing to Humboldt County in Northern California to grow marijuana, which is straining local watersheds and raising concerns about long-term economic impacts. The county is the state's largest producer of pot and is now piloting a program to regulate the cultivation of cannabis and to keep it out of the black market. Producer Sheraz Sadiq takes us to Humboldt in the first part of our series, \"Cannabis at a Crossroads.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Proposition 64 - Recreational Marijuana Use\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nThis November, California voters will decide whether to legalize the use of recreational marijuana. If Proposition 64 is approved, California would become the fifth state to legalize recreational pot use, alongside Colorado, Oregon, Washington and Alaska. The measure reflects the recommendations of a blue-ribbon commission formed by Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom. KQED Politics and Government reporter Katie Orr joins Thuy Vu.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

It brings awareness,\" Kaepernick said Sunday. \"Now, I think people are really talking about it. Having conversations about how to make change. What's really going on in this country. And we can move forward. ...There is police brutality. People of color have been targeted by police. So that's a large part of it and they're government officials. They are put in place by the government. So that's something that this country has to change. There's things we can do to hold them more accountable. Make those standards higher.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Martin Halloran, the San Francisco Police Officers Association president, sent a letter Monday to NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell and 49ers CEO Jed York denouncing Kaepernick's \"ill-advised\" statements and a \"naiveté\" and \"total lack of sensitivity\" toward police, along with an \"incredible lack of knowledge\" about officer-involved shootings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The police union invited Kaepernick or anyone else from the league to visit the San Francisco police academy to build communication and understanding about the profession.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>White House spokesman Josh Earnest said he was confident President Barack Obama is aware of Kaepernick's actions but hadn't spoken directly with the president about it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/cspan/status/770350639444398081\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"In general, what I can say is that I certainly don't share the views that Mr. Kaepernick expressed after the game in explaining his reasoning for his actions, but we surely would all acknowledge and even defend his right to express those views in the settings that he chooses,\" Earnest said. \"That's what he's done, and even as objectionable as we find his perspective, he certainly is entitled to express it.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Original Post:\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nSan Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick says he plans to sit through the national anthem for as long as he feels is appropriate and until he sees significant progress -- specifically when it comes to race relations in the United States.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I'm going to continue to stand with the people that are being oppressed,\" Kaepernick told reporters in Santa Clara on Sunday after a 49ers practice. \"To me this is something that has to change. When there's significant change and I feel like that flag represents what it's supposed to represent, this country is representing people the way that it's supposed to, I'll stand.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two days after he refused to stand for the \"The Star-Spangled Banner\" before the 49ers' preseason loss to the Packers, Kaepernick insisted that whatever the consequences, he will know \"I did what's right.\" He said he hasn't heard from the NFL or anyone else about his actions -- and it won't matter if he does.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"No one's tried to quiet me and, to be honest, it's not something I'm going to be quiet about,\" he said. \"I'm going to speak the truth when I'm asked about it. This isn't for look. This isn't for publicity or anything like that. This is for people that don't have the voice. And this is for people that are being oppressed and need to have equal opportunities to be successful. To provide for families and not live in poor circumstances.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kaepernick took the practice field Sunday with the 49ers as his stance drew chatter across NFL camps.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He explained his viewpoints to teammates in the morning, some agreeing with his message but not necessarily his method. Some said they know he has offended his countrymen, while others didn't even know what he had done.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Every guy on this team is entitled to their opinion. We're all grown men,\" linebacker NaVorro Bowman said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I agree with what he did, but not in the way he did it,\" wideout Torrey Smith said. \"That's not for me. He has that right. Soldiers have died for his right to do exactly what he did. ... I know he's taken a lot of heat for it. He understands that when you do something like that, it does offend a lot of people.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bowman and Smith are African-American.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kaepernick criticized presidential candidates Donald Trump (\"openly racist\") and Hillary Clinton (she \"called black teens or black kids super-predators\") and called out police brutality against minorities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There's people being murdered unjustly and not being held accountable,\" Kaepernick told reporters. \"People are being given paid leave for killing people. That's not right. That's not right by anyone's standards.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You can become a cop in six months and don't have to have the same amount of training as a cosmetologist,\" Kaepernick said. \"That's insane. Someone that's holding a curling iron has more education and more training than people that have a gun and are going out on the street to protect us.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In college at the University of Nevada-Reno, Kaepernick said, police were called one day \"because we were the only black people in that neighborhood.\" Officers entered without knocking and drew guns on him and his teammates and roommates as they were moving their belongings, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said his stand is not against men and women in the military.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I have great respect for men and women that have fought for this country,\" Kaepernick said. \"I have family, I have friends that gone and fought for this country. They fight for freedom. They fight for the people. They fight for liberty and justice for everyone. And that's not happening. People are dying in vain because this country isn't holding their end of the bargain up as far as, you know, giving freedom and justice and liberty to everybody.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Sunday, he stopped briefly on a side field to talk with UC Berkeley sociologist Harry Edwards and they shared a quick embrace before the quarterback grabbed his helmet and took the field. Edwards helped plan the \"Olympic Project for Human Rights\" before the 1968 Mexico City Olympics, where U.S. sprinters Tommie Smith and John Carlos took the medal podium barefoot and bowed their heads through the anthem, raising gloved fists in a black power protest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Coach Chip Kelly did not speak to the media Sunday. He said Saturday he still hasn't decided on his starting quarterback in a competition between Kaepernick and Blaine Gabbert, who took over the job from Kaepernick last November.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"That's his right as a citizen,\" Kelly said. \"We recognize his right as an individual to choose to participate or not participate in the national anthem.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, Kaepernick is prepared for whatever comes next.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think there's a lot of consequences that come along with this. There's a lot of people that don't want to have this conversation,\" he said. \"They're scared they might lose their job. Or they might not get the endorsements. They might not to be treated the same way. Those are things I'm prepared to handle. ...\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"At this point, I've been blessed to be able to get this far and have the privilege of being able to be in the NFL, making the kind of money I make and enjoy luxuries like that.
