I asked Jonathan Isaac two questions:
You didn’t kneel during the anthem but you also didn’t wear a black lives matter shirt. Do you believe black lives matter?
“Kneeling or wearing a Black Lives Matter t-shirt didn’t go hand in hand with supporting Black Lives… I believe that my life has been supported through the Gospel, everyone is made in the image of God.”

Can you explain what religion has to do with kneeling for the anthem to protest against racism and police brutality? pic.twitter.com/me61FleWPY

I’m very curious about — and will be patient for — Jonathan Isaac’s explanation here.
Standing for the anthem is one thing…
But seeming to be intentional about *not* wearing a Black Lives Matter shirt…. I dunno, man… pic.twitter.com/CFBJ98tOKG
