"vast majority" who white America did not hate i.e., almost all...? I can't name one. I don't think anyone can, and I don't think anyone will argue that point. I would like to see the historical great black people in this country cherished more during their lifetimes, but the great black who have died should be cherished more IN SCHOOLS through the educational system. Too many young black people don't have a father in the household and this leads to gangbangers, drug dealers, and rappers supplanting the traditional role of the black father during the black child's youth. The black community would serve itself better by making more of a conscious effort to restore the nucleus of the black family by having the black father be more of a positive influence in the child's life. Coupled with this, black children have amazing historical black role models to look up to like Sojourner Truth, Frederick Douglass, Tubman, Frances Harper, Booker T. Washington, DuBois, Louis Armstrong, Jackie Robinson, Jesse Owens, Sammy Davis, Jim Brown, Michael Jordan, Maya Angelou, Oprah, Toni Morrison, Clarence Thomas, Condy Rice, Colin Powell, and even Barack effing Obama as much as I hate the guy. Just to name a few off of the top of my head. But most of these names are lost in the annals of history and the youth in this country, especially the black youth, are naive of these names and how blacks in all areas of American culture have had a positive impact on the country.
I think the Donald Trump to Kapernick comparison is a complete fallacy and completely comparing apples to oranges. Trump ran for public office- he wasn't looking for a private job. Let's stick with Kapernick and the NFL because that is the real issue. Kapernick is a paid employee. Employers make the rules. Kapernick decided to wear a Castro shirt. Kapernick decided to kneel. Kapernick decided to create a poor image of himself. That is on him. That isn't on anyone else. An owner has the right to look at Kapernick's conduct as a player and as a person and decide "do I want this prospective employee representing my company...?"
I don't criticize Kapernick for his right to expressing his views. I do criticize him for failing to take responsibility for his actions and blame others for his unemployment. No, Kapernick, YOU are the reason you are not employed. You don't just go do whatever you want because you have the right and think that the owners have to take it up the ass and accept your bullshit just because you have the right to do so. Kapernick exposed himself for the fool who he is, not the people who are justifiably criticizing him.
