A US National Football League (NFL) quarterback has refused to stand for the national anthem in protest at what he sees as racial injustice.

 

Colin Kaepernick, who plays with the San Francisco 49ers, remained seated as the anthem was played.

“I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of colour,” he explained.

Some fans booed the player when he took to the field.
