Our President started a feud with the NFL players that have chosen to join Colon Kaepernick in kneeling during the national anthem last week, and Twitter, Facebook, have Instagram has responded with a variety of responses. How has Hollywood responded?
‘Dirty Jobs’ and ‘Returning the Favor’ host Mike Rowe has scolded the choice of words the President used but stands with those that are not in favor of the protest. Stevie Wonder took a knee during the Global Citizen concert last week, and Pharrell Williams and John Legend took a knee during their recent concert stops.
Conan, Ellen DeGeneres, Michael Moore, Samuel L. Jackson, Mark Hamill, and the entire case of X-Files, David, and Gillian have thrown their support for the protest, and player’s right of free speech.
