You guessed it. Colin Kaepernick — who was raised in Turlock, California; played football, baseball, and basketball in high school; and played as a quarterback for the San Francisco 49ers from 2011 to 2017 — is back in the news. This time he’s letting the whole world know that the NFL Draft is nothing short of a modern-day slave auction. You know, the auction for slaves to audition for an NFL team to sign multimillion-dollar contracts with possible endorsement deals.

To compare what slaves endured without compensation to playing a childhood game, making millions, and enjoying every moment of the fame and fortune is outright shameful. Where’s the tact in juxtaposing volunteering to play for the NFL with options as a free agent versus being forced into the brutality of free labor?

The epilogue of the first episode begins with a slave narrative with Kaepernick garbed in all black: “What they don’t want you to understand is what’s being established is a power dynamic.” He goes on to say: “Before they put you on the field, teams poke, prod and examine you searching for any defect that might affect your performance. No boundary respect. No dignity left intact.”

This scene shifts to a slave auction where both NFL and slave prospects are shirtless and shackled when the deal has been made as slave masters and football coaches shake hands signifying the slave has been sold for high dollar. Representative Burgess Owens (R-UT), who played in the NFL in the 1970s and ‘80s, voiced his own contempt for the slave comparisons. “How dare @Kaepernick7 compare the evil endured by so many of our ancestors to a bunch of millionaires who CHOSE to play game,” Owens, who is black, tweeted.

Leave it to Nike, Kaepernick, and a social justice warrior philosophy, and you have a Netflix miniseries called “Colin in Black & White.”

Colin was five weeks old when he was adopted by Rick and Teresa Kaepernick, a caucasian couple from Fond du Lac, Wisconsin. They already had two biological children but decided to adopt Colin after losing two other children to birth defects. The Netflix special offers a perspective of Colin growing up in a white family and a white neighborhood as a half-white, half-black son who gained his identity from hip-hop culture. I understand why Colin is a poster child for rebellion, black power, and defunding the police. It is not his skin color, nor is it his newfound afro with a pick in the middle. It is his rebellion of the American way. Colin is hip-hop. And hip-hop is the culture that sticks its middle finger to anyone and everyone who conforms to the societal norms of law and order.

Hip-hop is the soundtrack to fatherless sons and daughters growing up in subpar housing and poverty. Colin got a taste of this culture in school. Although he never personally experienced poverty or subpar housing, he felt the sting of being a fatherless son. Even though as an infant he was cared for by Rick Kaepernick, his biological father abandoned him. The pull of hip-hop culture lured Kaepernick to view his upper-middle-class lifestyle as “white privilege” instead of a loving family adopting him and giving him a better life.

In “Colin in Black & White,” he is a fragile pawn as he goes through life seeking his own self-worth and value. Unfortunately, he was easy pickings for the liberal media and hip-hop culture. His rebellion towards America makes sense now. All the Left has to do is find a black man with a hole the size of his biological father and replace it with fame and fortune. Viola! A droid spokesperson for leftism, Marxism, socialism, and communism under the umbrella of the hated capitalism.
