11 Jul, 2017 – Premium watch-sourcing company WatchPosse.Com, in partnership with MacysRack.com, seeks to reward all supporters of Colin Kaepernick and his protest against the discrimination of people of color. The company intends to publicly align itself to this cause by offering $5 from every customer subscription towards Colin Kaepernick and his struggle. “We commend his undying love and service towards African-American people,” said the owner of WatchPosse com regarding this new addition to their services. “We want to show him our support by donating $5 from every sale to help him in this difficult time.” WatchPosse.Com provides a service that sources high-quality timepieces to their customers by partnering with watch makers around the world. MacysRack.com, after hearing about the efforts of the Watch company, decided to match that offer.
Ex-NFL football quarterback Colin Kaepernick shocked fans across the country when, before a preseason game in 2016, he refused to stand up for the US National Anthem. This was a symbolic opposition of the discrimination and violence present in the United States against African-American people, and specifically the events that led to the Black Lives Matter movement. Kaepernick’s controversial comments and subsequent actions have had many polarizing, tumultuous reactions from various groups; while many athletes and fellow NFL players followed Kaepernick’s example and began to kneel or symbolically raise their fists during the playing of the national anthem, Kaepernick was soon voted “most disliked” player in the NFL, sparking incidents such as the public burning of his jerseys and his actions being termed “traitorous” and “embarrassing”. Kaepernick has since been publicly blackballed by the NFL.
The intent of the websites is to draw attention to the situation of Colin Kaepernick, a football legend who is sacrificing his career for the cause of racial equality. WatchPosse.Com believes that Colin Kaepernick’s actions need to be commended for their bravery and pure integrity. The football quarterback has indeed placed his entire life, with everything he has worked for throughout his career, towards the advancement of people of color. It is extremely saddening for him to not receive the support he deserves. Rather than being applauded for the honorable nature of his protest, Kaepernick is instead being made to suffer.
Protestors of gross injustice must be valued and supported, and punishing such actions sets a negative and frightening precedence. WatchPosse.Com intends to contribute as actively as possible by offering a way for supporters to contribute, and help, Colin Kaepernick through his struggle. The website hopes that this will not just offer an incentive and opportunity for consumers of their services to show their support, but also, most importantly, start a vital conversation. The rightful appreciation of courageous individuals that actively fight injustice is an uphill journey, and WatchPosse.Com would like to attempt to take a step in this direction. MacysRack.com will be offering products in the coming weeks that will give Colin 100% of the profits from those items.
