Kaepernick is GQ's citizen of the year and cover story

[papi68]

Colin Kaepernick, the former San Francisco 49ers quarterback who remains unemployed due (at least in part) to his protest of systemic racism during the national anthem, is GQ's 2017 Citizen of the Year.

Kaepernick, 30, did not speak to the magazine for an on-record interview but did pose for photographs and helped provide GQ with confidantes to offer "some rare insights into Colin Kaepernick himself." He has not given an on-record interview during the entire 2017 NFL season despite still being at the center of one of the year's biggest controversies.

Pretty much shows GO cares nothing about the racist white wing. GQ may have just picked up a new subscriber.

The idiots will show their anger by buying copies and recording themselves burning it.

The photo is user friendly...GQ isnt stupid...afro, black shirt and Jacket....but no black fist chain, no ankh, no symbol of anything....

I applaud this brother but at the same time GQ knows they are about to go in super print mode because mfs about to buy 4 and 5 copies to keep. Time will follo and do it on a much larger scale and after all the money has been made like before our people will continue to be at the starting line

Lol couture activism at its finest. Given a nice bump and shine by leftist media that profits and will continue to profit if from it. And y'all love it.

They gonna sell a ton of magazines off this "movement", own the "iconic" images, play their part in creating this virtual revolution that makes all y'all feel like you're doing something lol. This fool is parroting black panthers with the slightly updated CUSTOM fit lmaooo.
