Hello and welcome. We start with a significant u turn. Four years ago one american Football Player knelt when the National Anthem was played in a protest against police bruatlity towards black americans. Many other players followed Colin Kaepernicks example, but he was sanctioned by the games governing body and has failed to find a team since 2017. Since the death in custody of george floyd, taking the knee, as it is now called, has been repeated at demonstrations around the country and beyond. And many leading Football Players have shown their anger byjoining in orstaging their own protests. And now the nfl has completely reversed its earlier position on taking the knee. It has been a difficult time for our country. In particular, black people in our country. First, my condolences to the families of george floyd, breonna taylor, Ahmaud Arbery and all the families affected by Police Brutality. We, the National Football league, condemn racism and the systematic oppression of black peopl
