Kaepernick Hots "Know Your Rights" Camp

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick hosted a "Know Your Rights" camp for Oakland-area youth Saturday, an event designed to expand his focus on social and racial injustice beyond his national anthem protest.
"This is exciting for me because I see a lot of hope, what is to come," Kaepernick said beforehand, in an interview with The Undefeated's Marc J. Spears.
Kaepernick said the campers, who numbered around 100, would have sessions to learn about situations with police, their rights, holistic health, financial literacy, and understanding both community and self. He said the camp's aim is to "empower youth, give them resources and tools" to deal with difficult situations.
"We want to let them know they have options and people that are behind them to help them," he said. "And that's a powerful thing, for someone else to have belief in you."
