Colin Kapernick is the face of the ad and even narrates it, not mentioning anything of his football career or national anthem protest. The ad digs much deeper than presenting Kaepernick as the face of their campaign. Nike pursued the fight for equality and racial issues, making it a priority despite the backlash they would face. ]]> 2018-09-27 13:16:30 UTC https://padlet.com/rknelson/oyg7o3czx3wf/wish/286488581 Cross-Platform snyarbrough https://padlet.com/rknelson/oyg7o3czx3wf/wish/286489948 I think this is a good change for the PlayStation.

That meant turning off features that allowed people to share Instagram posts through Facebook. I hope that Facebook and Instagram do not split because then I can't share something on Instagram to someone on Facebook.]]> 2018-09-27 13:20:51 UTC https://padlet.com/rknelson/oyg7o3czx3wf/wish/286491818 Brett Kavanaugh jdclark https://padlet.com/rknelson/oyg7o3czx3wf/wish/286492484 i think it's a set up from the beginning because a lot of people were against him and then whenever he gets the nominee position that's when people start to come foward and accuse him about something that happened 30 or so years ago. Then when someone figures out that the case is going no where another person accuses him. They are just trying to ruin his reputation in the Supreme Court. They don't want him in the ''law system'' but he might actually be the best thing for the Supreme Court.]]> 2018-09-27 13:21:43 UTC https://padlet.com/rknelson/oyg7o3czx3wf/wish/286492484 Brett Kavanaugh mmking1 https://padlet.com/rknelson/oyg7o3czx3wf/wish/286492852 he shouldn't get the job unless hes proven innocent ]]> 2018-09-27 13:22:11 UTC https://padlet.com/rknelson/oyg7o3czx3wf/wish/286492852 Controversy majohnson12 https://padlet.com/rknelson/oyg7o3czx3wf/wish/286493128 Nike made the right choice creating an ad that included famous and infamous people, tackling worldwide problems and creating diversity.]]> 2018-09-27 13:22:31 UTC https://padlet.com/rknelson/oyg7o3czx3wf/wish/286493128 Playstation opens its platform haquezada https://padlet.com/rknelson/oyg7o3czx3wf/wish/286493430 Players on Playstation will now be able to play with friends on every other major platform.]]> 2018-09-27 13:22:52 UTC https://padlet.com/rknelson/oyg7o3czx3wf/wish/286493430 Brett Kavanaugh mmglover https://padlet.com/rknelson/oyg7o3czx3wf/wish/286493724 https://www.vox.com/2018/9/17/17869368/brett-kavanaugh-confirmation-sexual-assault-what-we-know
why was none of this reported when it happen, I think they need to get people from the party to tell the court weather they ever went anywhere by themselves or if either one was actually at that party. How did it happen at a high school party then get changed to freshman collage party? I don't think this should get brought up now when it happen a long time ago. I know if that ever happen to me I would report it when it happen. ]]> 2018-09-27 13:23:13 UTC https://padlet.com/rknelson/oyg7o3czx3wf/wish/286493724 Guilty until proven innocent??? rknelson https://padlet.com/rknelson/oyg7o3czx3wf/wish/286493912 I thought our democracy was founded on the principle of "innocent until proven guilty," but these days it seems to be the opposite. All of Kavanaugh's accusers admit to having been drinking and to having gaps in their memory. Plus, just because someone did something in his/her teen years or college years doesn't mean he/she hasn't matured and grown over the years. It doesn't mean that person isn't a model citizen today. I know I am not the same person I was 30 years ago. This #metoo movement seems to be getting out of hand. As a mother of a teen-aged son, I fear for him and his future. His reputation could be ruined at any given moment with a simple accusation.]]> 2018-09-27 13:23:27 UTC https://padlet.com/rknelson/oyg7o3czx3wf/wish/286493912 https://www.cnn.com/2018/09/26/politics/julie-swetnick-allegation-kavanaugh/index.html mmking1 https://padlet.com/rknelson/oyg7o3czx3wf/wish/286494637 2018-09-27 13:24:25 UTC https://padlet.com/rknelson/oyg7o3czx3wf/wish/286494637 Bill Cosby snyarbrough https://padlet.com/rknelson/oyg7o3czx3wf/wish/286495713 In my opinion it's a good thing that Bill Cosby is put behind bars.

He was ordered to pay a fine of $25,000 plus the costs of persecution as a part of his sentence. They claim in 2003, Cosby gave Constand pills so he could take advantage of her. She filed charges in 2005 but the policed but they declined to press charges. After she spoke up, other women started chiming in and speaking about the horrific experiences they had with Bill Cosby too and the started a #metoo movement.]]> 2018-09-27 13:32:28 UTC https://padlet.com/rknelson/oyg7o3czx3wf/wish/286500563 nnavarrete3 https://padlet.com/rknelson/oyg7o3czx3wf/wish/286500809 Nike's controversial 30th anniversary ad campaign featuring Colin Kaepernick but nike executives debated on dropping their sponsorship]]> 2018-09-27 13:32:50 UTC https://padlet.com/rknelson/oyg7o3czx3wf/wish/286500809 tiger woo cadavis6 https://padlet.com/rknelson/oyg7o3czx3wf/wish/286501424 2018-09-27 13:33:53 UTC https://padlet.com/rknelson/oyg7o3czx3wf/wish/286501424 Nike's Controversy mjcason https://padlet.com/rknelson/oyg7o3czx3wf/wish/286923635 I think Nike made the right decision by letting Colin be in their ads.

President Trump’s Supreme Court nominee and the woman who accused him of sexual assault at a high school party appeared separately before a Senate committee on Thursday to share emotional and contradictory accounts of what happened decades ago.

“I believed he was going to rape me,” the woman, Christine Blasey Ford, told the committee in discussing her harrowing account of assault.
I think that it is a setup if this happened 30 years ago they should have come forward sooner.i think that they are just trying to get him to not be able to get the job.

They have no proof they he did it, just a woman's word. People are wrongfully convicted everyday and this could be one of those cases. Although I don't believe he did it, If he did, he needs to be punished.]]> 2018-09-28 13:26:12 UTC https://padlet.com/rknelson/oyg7o3czx3wf/wish/286938683
