Ogom Chijindu, one of the biggest stars in the Legends Football League has spoken up against the league’s decision to ban players from protesting during the national anthem despite thinking that kneeling is actually weak.
According to TMZ Sports, Chijindu says
“We’re supposed to have a 1st Amendment right is that not correct? So for someone, anyone, I don’t care who it is to tell me I have to sit, stand, kneel, or do any type of gesture I feel is inappropriate.”
She also feels that kneeling is a subservient act, despite agreeing with Kaepernick’s decision to protest.
“Who told Colin Kaepernick to start kneeling instead of sitting, I’m not trying to be mean. I’m not sugarcoating it, it was a white Navy S.E.A.L.”
“For me the image that is now out there is African citizens of America are on their knees in submission, while other ethnicities be it white or any other race is standing.”
Point of correction: it wasn’t a Navy Seal but rather an Army Green Beret.
