Why Kaepernick Took a Knee & What Kept Him Going

Key takeaway

Write down one ambitious goal today, then spend five minutes mentally rehearsing the actions and obstacles between you and that outcome. Kaepernick describes how written goals - from playing for the 49ers as a child to becoming a starter and reaching the Super Bowl - gave his training direction. Treat visualization as preparation, not wishful thinking: identify likely scenarios, rehearse your response, and take one concrete action that makes the goal more real.

Episode overview

Colin Kaepernick joins Rich Roll to reflect on the experiences, convictions, and preparation that led to his 2016 protest against police brutality. He discusses resilience, the cost of principled action, Know Your Rights Camp, his literacy-focused AI company Lumi, and why he still trains daily for a possible NFL return.
