On August 26, 2016, Colin Kaepernick protested against police brutality and racism by kneeling during the U.S. national anthem. Throughout the following seasons, members of various NFL and other sports teams have engaged in similar silent protests. On September 24, 2017, the NFL protests became more widespread when over 200 players sat or knelt in response to President Donald Trump's calling for owners to "fire" the protesting players.
