Man Takes a Knee During National Anthem at White House
  • 6 years ago
A man kneeled during the national anthem at an event at the White House on June 5. The event had replaced a Super Bowl celebration event for the Philadelphia Eagles that was cancelled after many players declined the invitation.On June 4, US President Donald Trump tweeted: “The Philadelphia Eagles Football Team was invited to the White House. Unfortunately, only a small number of players decided to come, and we canceled the event. Staying in the Locker Room for the playing of our National Anthem is as disrespectful to our country as kneeling. Sorry!” Credit: Carina Bergfeldt, SVT via Storyful
