Colin Kaerpernick played six seasons for the San Francisco 49ers in the National Football League (NFL) before he was sidelined for standing up for his beliefs.

He is also a political activist, best known for kneeling during the national anthem to protest police brutality and racial inequality in the  U.S.

As you may recall, he was  black-balled and sidelined by the NFL for standing up for his convictions.

Now is the time to right the wrong done to a just and honorable man. The NFL posted in a tweet that it "vowed to do better."  Start by doing the right thing. Apologize to and give Kaerpernick his job back. A vindication for Kaepernick is a vindication for America. God bless the USA!
