In what is believed to be the first time an entire high school football team has refused to participate in the national anthem, Seattle's Garfield High School football team, including the coaches, took a knee during the anthem Friday night before their game against West Seattle High to protest “social injustices.”
The local Fox affiliate reports that after the game, which Garfield won, head football coach Joey Thomas said that "the players decided to do this" to bring attention to "social injustices," emphasizing that it was "a player-driven" move and that his players plan to continue the practice during the anthem before every game "until they tell us to stop."
