Protests need to be visible to be effective. By taking the knee during the anthem, Kaepernick ensured people would listen.

When it comes to the Covid-19 quarantines and the protests they've inspired:

As someone wise put it -- If you feel like you’re struggling to pay the bills right now, that you can’t step outside without jeopardizing your life, that the police could arrest you at any moment, and that the government doesn’t care, welcome to being black in America.

White folks have had to put up with one whole month of this now, and some of them are melting like snowflakes.

And some of these protestors have demonstrated they are perfectly willing to — in effect — commit suicide and/or murder other Americans just to be able to again have the freedom to get their hair cut at Great Clips or dine out at Applebee’s or buy Christmas trim or whatever they were planning to do in the retail shops that are now closed.
