Thanks. Now that Harry has taking Colin under his wing he has undoubtedly assisted this young man to see a much larger picture of where he fits into our society. One thing Harry's most likely impressed upon Colin by now is the importance of voting.

As Harry expressed to the graduates in the Commencement Address in May of 2016...

"And, finally, Continue The Struggle. Ultimately, change is most legitimately and expeditiously achieved in a representative democracy  when political leadership is pushed  through exercise of participatory citizenship by an informed and mobilized electorate. Aside from your work, your job, find at least one thing that you truly believe in as a change goal, commit yourself to activism in support of that goal, and
follow up by voting."

"Activist struggle and representative electorial politics are NOT mutually exclusive – in fact, the difference between a MOB and a MOVEMENT  in a representative democracy is that a movement not only organizes and mobilizes around an issue --- it gets people out to vote !"

And lo-and-behold...

Harry Edwards believes Colin Kaepernick should have voted

After the election, Kaepernick said he didn't vote because he didn't think either candidate would have helped the cause he was fighting for. The quarterback criticized both presidential candidates during the campaign. Edwards believes Kaepernick should have voted anyway, particularly because the presidency was just one component of the ballot. "[Edwards] speaks several times a week with Kaepernick. The next time they talk he plans to explain why Kaepernick should have voted (he didn’t); that even if he didn’t care for Trump or Hillary Clinton, there were “critically important” issues—the death penalty, legalized marijuana—on California’s ballot."
