For the first time, here is the full story of the NFL player
protests that rocked a nation and turned our country upside down.
This is the players' side, one that has largely been ignored by the
media. On September 1, 2016, Colin Kaepernick took a knee before a
preseason game. Little did he, nor anyone else, know the
ramifications from that decision. Since being exiled from the
National Football League, Kaepernick has stood strong against all
those who have attacked him. He and others who took a knee against
racial inequality and police brutality have been ridiculed, mocked,
threatened, and some have even lost their jobs. They have feared
for their safety and that of their loved ones. But what made
Kaepernick kneel, and the entire country turn a silent protest into
a national pandemic? One person: President Donald Trump. For the
first time, veteran journalist Mike Freeman sits down with those
directly involved in the protests--the players--to find out how
things really went down. Readers will learn why they decided to
protest, how racism and the murdering of innocent men of color
directly affected them, how the politics of protest affected their
professional and personal lives, and if anything has even changed
for the better. Including interviews with Colin Kaepernick, Eric
Reid, Kenny Stills, Michael Bennett, Richard Sherman, and numerous
others, see first-hand how the media, President Trump, and the
National Football League took a peaceful message for change and
turned it on its head. They changed the narrative, accusing these
men of being "anti-America," "anti-military," and "disrespecting
the flag." In Football's Fearless Activists, Freeman offers an
opportunity to understand what these protests meant to the players,
and how the hatred from the media, President, NFL owners, and some
Americans was not only unwarranted, but anti-American.
