Archive from 2017: On Bended Knee - NFL Protest Special

Originally released in October 2017.... Mark Chapman examines the controversy surrounding NFL players kneeling for the national anthem and how it has spread to the rest of American sport. Find out why players do it, the impact they've had and the roles played by social injustices, the military and government. Plus, we analyse whether the debate it has caused has further split the US along racial lines. You'll hear from the man who started it all, Colin Kaepernick, along with a former NFL player, a current NFL team owner, Barack Obama and Donald Trump.
