Colin Kaepernick has no regrets about sitting out Tuesday’s presidential election.
The San Francisco 49ers’ polarizing quarterback did not vote and said Wednesday he “didn’t really follow” the results as Donald Trump was elected the 45th president of the United States.
“I’ve been very disconnected from the systematic oppression as a whole,” Kaepernick told reporters in a conference call Wednesday. “So, for me, it’s another face that’s going to be the face of that system of oppression.
“And to me, it didn’t really matter who went in there, the system still remains intact that oppresses people of color.”
