There have been 1000s of TV and radio segments and millions of social media posts discrediting Colin Kaepernick for various things, but not too many about all the positive things he is doing.
For example In Flex We Trust points out as part of Kaepernick’s Million Dollar Pledge to help young people and causes that promote racial equality he just gave $25k to the Black Youth Project 100.
According to BYP100, the Agenda to Build Black Futures is “a set of economic goals and structural changes that could improve the lives of Black people living in America.”
“We envision a more economically just society that values the lives and well-being of ALL Black people, including women, queer, and transgender folks, the incarcerated and formerly incarcerated as well as those who languish in the bottom 1% of the economic hierarchy,” BYP100 wrote on its website.
People who are racists always like to scream about black on black crime and why aren’t black people trying to help Chicago.
Well, here is someone and an organization that is trying to help, but those racists and black people who love to tear black people down won’t say anything about this.
The reality black people across the country are doing positive work in their communities, the media just chooses not to spotlight it.
