  • Was Quinton de Kock wrong for refusing to take the knee?
    Quinton de Kock withdrew from the Proteas match against the West Indies at the T20 World Cup on Tuesday after refusing to follow a directive forcing all players to take a knee.
    To be clear, 'taking a knee' means kneeling on the ground, a gesture of solidarity with the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement. It has been done by national teams in varying countries voluntarily at international sporting events since the death of George Floyd in the US.

    in the 60s, the Dutch were so frustrated with the government's monopoly on TV that they built an artificial island in the North Sea to transmit uncensored television. Eventually, the Netherlands legally expanded its maritime claim and the military raided the island by air. Some radio stations did the same, they were called pirate radio stations and one in Amsterdam has been converted into a restaurant.
