Colin Kaepernick’s ex-coach has spoken out to support Kaep and his protest against black oppression during the last NFL season.

Kaep was lsted in Time 100’s most influential people and University of Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh had some choice words to say about the currently Free Agent.

“Colin Kaepernick was alone in his early protests last year when he boldly and courageously confronted perceived inequalities in our social-justice system by refusing to stand for the national anthem,”

“At times in our nation’s history, we have been all too quick to judge and oppose our fellow Americans for exercising their First Amendment right to address things they believe unjust.”

Harbaugh went on:

“Rather than besmirch their character, we must celebrate their act,”

“I also applaud Colin for the courage he has demonstrated in exercising his guaranteed right of free speech. His willingness to take a position at personal cost is now part of our American story.

“How lucky for us all and for our country to have among our citizens someone as remarkable as Colin Kaepernick.”

Great words for a great man!
