Camden coach kneels for anthem to spotlight inequities
In Camden, Brown knelt before the season opener and most players joined him. He said the act drew attention to social injustices and poverty. He noted his upbringing in poverty and described the Camden community as predominantly African American and one of New Jersey's poorest.
