Since being benched by the San Francisco 49ers in 2016, former quarterback Colin Kaepernick has become a prominent activist, claiming to work in pursuit of racial and social justice. Kaepernick’s subsequent actions include the now infamous decision to kneel during the national anthem at NFL games, wearing socks depicting police officers as pigs, and signing a multi-million dollar endorsement deal with Nike.
This week, Kaepernick made headlines yet again, this time for becoming the “latest athlete to join Wall Street’s SPAC craze,” teaming up with a private equity investor to form a blank-check company.
