I truly believe many of them have no idea why they are actually doing it .. or what change they expect this action to bring about .. my opinion. There have been tremendous strides in overall race and minority relations in this country since the 1950's.
The US has had a black president as well as many top government officials, and prominent individuals in many sectors, including law enforcement and the military. Hispanics have certainly progressed tremendously. I have seen Latinos .. personally .. come into this country not even being able to speak English .. taking minimum wage manual labor jobs, learning English at night school, getting married, having children, and the kids have graduated from U of F and FIU.
Key factor .. strong core values .. family unit. Why do blacks not want to take any personal responsibility for their own situation? Why has the % of black children born out of wedlock increased from 14% in 1940, to 25% in 1965, and is now currently approaching 75%? Why doesn't Kap tell black kids to be responsible, not have 8-10 baby mommas .. kids with no father and no family environment? Family, role model, education = stability. Have some actual self-respect. That is what many people who are watching the kneeling are thinking.
