You can’t deny that Colin Kaepernick’s silent protest last season will go down in black history.

 

The Smithsonian, which opened the National Museum of African American History and Culture in September 2016, will be adding some vital pieces of sports history. According to Dr. Harry Edwards, 49ers psychologist, several pieces of memoronilia from Kaep have been sent off to the museum.

 

“I said, ‘Don’t wait 50 years to try to get some memorabilia and so forth on Kaepernick,’ ” Edwards told USA TODAY Sports. “ ‘Let me give you a game jersey, some shoes, a picture … And it should be put right there alongside Muhammad Ali. He’s this generation’s Ali.’ ”

 

The items were sent off immediately but are not yet on display. Expect them to be included in the museum within the next year or two, according to the Smithsonian’s curator of sports, Damion Thomas.
