“… This Sunday, the Cowboys will take the field in Santa Clara against the 49ers, where Colin Kaepernick first protested racist police violence by refusing to stand for the national anthem. I hope and expect to see many players once again take a knee. I know I will be taking a knee that day, along side many families of people whose loved ones were murdered by police, commemorating October 22, the National Day of Protest to Stop Police Brutality, Repression, and the Criminalization of a Generation, which I initiated more than 20 years ago. I call on people across this country to go to the games and take a knee as well, and to send out their pictures on social media while also calling on others to join us in the streets on November 4th (#Nov4ItBegins) to end this nightmare.”
