Colin Kaepernick is launching an initiative through his Know Your Rights Camp that will offer free, secondary autopsies to family members of anyone whose death is related to police.
The initiative works with a panel of board-certified forensic pathologists who perform autopsies, give preliminary findings and issue final reports to requesting families.
The prison industrial complex, which includes police and policing, strives to protect and serve its interests at all costs.
Concerns about reliability and objectivity of the first autopsy, the risk of manipulation of evidence, and the use of faulty forensic procedures are eliminated by the initiative.
The opportunity to have second autopsies performed by experienced forensic pathologists in police-related deaths will provide victims and their families with knowledge.
After leading the San Francisco 49ers to the Super Bowl in 2012 and kneeling during the national anthem in 2016 to protest racial injustice, quarterback Colin Kapernick did not play in the National Football League again.
The league blacklisted Eric and Colin because of their protests during the anthem. A settlement was reached in 2019.
