Colin in Black & White

Those who have complained about the story being told and how it's being told, are precisely the reason the story needs telling. This is just offering a different perspective to a world many of us couldn't possibly understand. Kaepernick isn't whining, he's just speaking his truth, and he's showing us there's more to pro-sports than we realize, and how naive we have really been.

What a beautiful coming of age story about a biracial boy raised in the suburbs by a white couple and all the rites of passages he goes through attempting to reach his potential.

Kaepernick's future and polarizing position in life is so clear from the childhood he had. It's history repeating itself, for not just him but any nonwhite child growing up in a predominantly white community or schooling.

The difference is the highs he achieved, that allowed this story to be financed. I really enjoyed it. The performances were good and the moments were touching. I was actually left wanting more.

If you're not interested in conversations about race or seeing black people navigate America, this might be the wrong entertainment for you.

It's pretty obvious who the people giving the 1 star reviews are. Obviously they have a hard time reading statistics and struggle with any form of empathy. I saw a review here that read "he divided a nation" - sure. That right there tells you more than you need to know. Colin is an extremely talented player who wanted to do the right thing. A role model for many.

An interesting look at Colin's teenage years at high school and his struggle with racism whilst pursuing his dream of becoming a quarter back. I can see some of the themes bought up here have offended people but I personally didn't feel offended.

In some ways, Colin had a privileged childhood with white parents. But in other ways, his loving but sometimes unwoke parents seemed occasionally (understandably) a bit clueless about racism, dark skin bias, racist micro-regressions, etc.

As an Asian American, I consider Colin a Hero in the BLM movement. Bringing much needed attention to the horrific, systemic, racist 'structured violence' that too many African Americans have had to suffer for Hundreds of years.

His action cost him his beloved career. A sacrifice that, sadly, even former, Progressive, supreme court justice, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, did not appreciate.

Anyway, it was great to see Colin's story so far.

Looking forward to All future seasons of Colin Kaepernick's journey.

Will definitely recommend this to everyone on the internet !
