Is that the narrative of Black Lives Matter or are there people who are saying that within a crowd of other human beings? There is a distinction between a movement and the people. That is something that we keep coming back to. But let's go back to what you were saying on Colin Kaepernick and the national anthem. This is something I don't understand.
And when I watch your videos, I go, I truly do not understand. You say Colin Kaepernick is exercising his First Amendment rights and you are exercising your First Amendment rights in criticizing him. So what you are saying is you have the right to say anything you want, so shut up.

When people say that, I'm always fascinated. What is the right way? Here's the deal. So here's a black man in America who says, I don't know how to get a message across. If I march in the streets, people say I'm a thug. If I go out and I protest, people say that it's a riot. If I bend down on one knee, then it's not. What is the right way? That is something I've always wanted to know.

What is the right way for a black person to get attention in America? Taking it out.

Well, maybe you're a person who's lived and read through history and you realize that a lot of those people of every color who died for this country, some of them didn't have the rights that their fellow servicemen had when they came back to the country after fighting for it. And that flag means a lot to those folks, too. Maybe you're one of those people who realizes

that the penal system in America was designed to oppress black people. It was designed to enslave people. It is a relic of slavery. Maybe you're one of those people. So what I don't understand is a guy is kneeling in the corner. I don't understand why that offends you so much. It's not even like he's trying to sing over you. If he was doing that, he's like, oh, say, oh, say, can me see?

No, he's singing. He's not doing anything that affects you. I don't understand why it gets to you. I genuinely don't. He's in a corner kneeling by himself. Why does that offend you so much?
No, he's singing. He's not doing anything that affects you. I don't understand why it gets to you. I genuinely don't. He's in a corner kneeling by himself. Why does that offend you so much?
No one brought up whites at all. I never said that. I don't see color. I... I don't think that that's what the argument is. What I'm saying is, I asked you one question and that is, how should a black person bring up their grievances? That's all I ask, how? If that's not the right way, if marching isn't the right way, what is the right way?

Again, you haven't answered my question of how. how you want black people. I'm just asking how. And I'm asking you honestly. I'm not saying in a challenging way. I'm saying to you, I don't know the answer apart from these methods. So I would like to know if you've ever thought of a how because you're the first person I've met who said this. I've seen this message online.

I'm not labeling you as the bad person. I just want to know if you've ever thought of the how. That's all I want to know.
