Colin Kaepernick brought his “Know Your Rights” camp to Chicago where he received some help from his celeb friends Common and Keri Hilson. Get into their philanthropic work inside…
While he’s still an unsigned QB in the NFL, Colina Kaepernick is keeping busy with his philanthropic efforts to educate the youth.
The former 49ers quarterback brought his “Know Your Rights” camp to the DuSable Museum of African American History in Chicago on Saturday. And the 29-year-old activist called up Common and Keri Hilson to educate the kids on knowing their rights, the importance of higher education, and how to properly interact with law enforcement.
The daylong camp included guest speakers, a scavenger hunt, a history challenge and the younings were given DNA kits from Ancestry.com. The kiddies were also gifted backpacks with literature, including a Malcolm X book.
Loves it!
He made sure to rep Kappa Alpha Psi as well.
Teaching young, black girls and boys how to engage with law enforcement is crucial at these times. We applaud Colin’s efforts to possibly save their lives one day.
Loves it!
