What makes Black people upset about Tim Tebow signing in NFL is not just the NFL itself & hypocrisy of Colin Kaepernick’s blackballing vs Tebow’s unlimited privilege, it’s the burden of feeling we have to beat back every single cultural fight to preserve rights in our real lives
Tim Tebow’s unlimited privilege vs Colin Kaepernick’s blackballing is not far a leap from GOP voter suppression bills in Black people’s eyes.
Not far a leap for the right either.See Mr. Potato Head & Dr. Seuss displays in Congressional hearings,except their arguments are trivial

Absolutely NO Black person has any substantive beef against Tim Tebow the man. To suggest some reverse racism against him is profoundly absurd and intentionally intellectually dishonest.
Black people know an uneven playing field when they see it, & they see an extra man on it

For Tim Tebow’s seemingly ageless, unlimited privilege vs Colin Kaepernick’s blackballing, Black people see a yellow flag the play, and the once again, the American flag on display
*on the play* but you feel me ✊🏽
