As It Is Written, So Let It Be Done!
The National Football League team owners has issued their final ruling on the longstanding ‘kneeling’ controversy and the newly inducted ‘bylaws’ are in favor of the NFL.
Players and team personnel are required to stand during the national anthem while on the field, and if kneeling from any team member occurs -the entire team will be summoned to pay a hefty fine. Option B, allows players to stay inside the locker room during the pre-game ceremony.
What your witnessing here-is a clear example of forced nationalism by way of Institutionalized Racism!
” A Form Of Racism Expressed In The Practice Of Social And Political Institutions. Institutional Racism Is Also Racism By Individuals Or Informal Social Groups, Governed By Behavioral Norms That Support Racist Thinking And Incites Active Racism. “
The NFL new policy decision is most certainly a political move at best, and one hundred percent in protection of their bottom line. The NFL TV ratings and viewership diminished significantly due to the Colin Kaepernick 2016 protests.
Forbes said ” NBC’s Sunday Night Football Saw Their Lowest Ratings In Seven Years.”
President Donald Trump public denouncement of players to his fifty million viewers was a clever chess move; issuing a subtle warning to the NFL in restoring the order of chain of command. So, on one side of the spectrum – there’s a majority of people siding with Kapernick, and on the opposite side there’s an uncertain Nationalist party in possession of the ‘power wand’. The NFL corporation is a multi-billion dollar industry with billion dollar investors on the backend a.k.a ‘bottom line’ who keeps the money barrel circulating.
O’er the land of the free
GREED
and the home of the brave
ENSLAVED
The NFL is giving a master class in institutionalized racism! Their collusion against Colin Kaepernick (@Kaepernick7) & Eric Reid (@E_Reid35); their new fines for kneeling… The @NFL does not care about BLACK People! #NFL #NFLCollusion #NFLBoycott #ColinKaepernick #EricReid

Figuratively speaking, #NFL owners are cracking their whips at black players trying to make them collectively say: “My name is Toby.” #NFLAnthemPolicy

As @CharlieSokaitis pointed out, it is ironic that on the same day the #NFL makes a rule against protests during (not AGAINST) the anthem, the Milwaukee police release video of #Bucks Sterling Brown being tazed unlawfully, an example of the very thing players are protesting. https://t.co/Z7d8YUt9m1

The NFL punishing athletes for taking a knee in response to police brutality & inequality in justice system is another example in a long history of white men using power & economic threats to “put black men in their place”.
Old, tired & lame af.#Resist #NFL
