Super big shout out to GQ for taking a brave stance and naming Colin Kaepernick ‘Citizen of the Year’. The excellent cover story properly places Kaepernick’s activism in the context of such icons as Muhammad Ali and Jackie Robinson. Shot in Harlem, Martin Schoeller’s simply incredible images of the athlete/activist resonate with power, purpose and poise. Since Kaepernick is currently not talking to the press, GQ talked to some of his closest confidants, which include luminaries like Ava DuVernay, J. Cole, Linda Sarsour and many others about the meaning of Colin’s activism.
