The NFL used Colin Kaepernick’s image during the #SuperBowl broadcast while telling Kenny Washington’s 1946 “integration” story.

The NFL says “the Black football player was invisible no more,” yet Kaepernick has been blackballed for 4 seasons for excercising is rights. Shameful.
Kenny Washington’s story is important. He was colluded against by NFL owners for 6 seasons.

In 2 seasons, the NFL will break its own collusion record by continuing to blackball Colin Kaepernick.

This is the NFL’s legacy. #SuperBowl  #BlackHistoryMonth
The “color barrier” was put up by the NFL and it’s still there if you are a Black QB getting blasted by a white supremacist President for speaking out about police brutality, or a Black coach looking for an NFL head coaching position.
Kenny Washington should be in the HOF. The video got that right. However, the @ProFootballHOF won’t count Kenny’s time playing for integrated leagues while the NFL owners where banning him.
