Colin Kaepernick worshipers are attacking NFL receiver Dez Bryant for simply asking where the “activist” has been.
This attack on one of their own shows how complicated liberals can get – they wasn’t really even implying anything negative about Kaepernick, it was more like an honest question that needed answering.
Bryant asked where Kaepernick went because he is the one who started this whole idiotic movement, yet he has been almost completely silent lately when it comes to anything involving the movement. Bryant joined former NFL players Brandon Marshall, Fred Taylor, Chad Johnson, and Channing Crowder on a podcast called ‘I Am An Athlete.’
While discussing his mother, as well as Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, Bryant took a few minutes to discuss Colin Kaepernick, implying that he hasn’t helped those who he claims to stand for.
“I respect Colin Kaepernick, but there’s one thing I don’t respect,” Bryant said. “And I said when I get the opportunity to get on the stage to say it, I would say it. And I love him to death, so there ain’t no hate. But brother, you had the biggest opportunity in the world to create jobs, build jobs, give jobs to people. The people that you were talking about, that you were so-called standing up for, the people who stood beside you, the people who lost their jobs because of you. Where you at? I ain’t heard from you.”

“He brought the awareness. And that’s why I respect him.”
Former ESPN anchor and The Atlantic writer Jemele Hill jumped on Twitter to defend Kaepernick against Bryant tweeting,
With all due respect @DezBryant, this is uninformed. Colin Kaepernick has created a publishing company, a SPAC that’s raising $300M for social justice initiatives, a production company, etc. On top of founding the Know Your Rights Camp. I don’t get the point of dragging his name.
