    That's what happens when there is no equal opportunity in employment. People don't have enough money to be good consumers so the whole system is weakened. That's another reason to protest.

    You keep giving reasons for protests. That's another one.

    I'm confused. When I see someone on their knees they are giving me a blow job. Is that some sort of protest?

    Well done

    the letter you link to was a message to Negro leaders within the “Colored” community to help themselves and their people

    In no way did it order private bankers to make home loans they did not want to mske

    Should we take money from whites and givem to blacks, so they too be good consumers? For I don’t see how the equal opportunity in employment can be made better... an affirmative action was supposed to rectify this historic injustice and it haven’t... what do we do?

    But wait, black employment is at the record high... perhaps, Trump is doing something right after all? :applause:

    I suspect that you are confused. You should probably refrain from sharing your expectation.

    Nike, of course, was thinking about any true capitalist's goal, profit.

    Perhaps he was. He’s a footnote in NFL history book now.

    It’s in NFL policies book as of the last year, thanks to Kaepernick, but do find comfort in that NFL has chosen not to enforce it's own policies for the time being :nana:
