It has been 10 years since former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick first took a knee during the national anthem, but the conversation surrounding his protest continues. This week, Kaepernick used a stop on his book tour to reflect on those events and challenge critics who opposed his message. Based on reporting from Yahoo Sports and other news outlets, Kaepernick spoke during an author event in Dallas promoting his new memoir, “The Perilous Fight,” Yahoo! said.
