This weekend, players and team owners across the NFL demonstrated during the National Anthem in nearly every game played.

Though for more than a year, some players have been kneeling during the anthem before games as a way to raise awareness about racial injustice, yesterday marked widespread protests in the form of players kneeling, linking arms and holding fists in the air. It also sparked the hashtag #TakeAKnee.

The demonstrations come after President Trump called the demonstrators “sons of b******” and suggested that they should be fired. He also called on citizens to boycott the league.

Here’s a look at what Christian leaders have said in response. (Note: This list may be updated throughout the day.)

These fellas are kneeling for a 12yr old boy named Tamir shot dead in a Cleveland park. They're kneeling for a better country. #TakeTheKnee — Joshua DuBois (@joshuadubois) September 24, 2017

Kneeling with joy. Kneeling for peace. Kneeling in righteous indignation. Kneeling for justice. In prayer. Kneeling in love. #TakeAKnee — Joshua DuBois (@joshuadubois) September 24, 2017

I still/always will pray for/respect office of President. Glad men like @Jentezen have not abandoned their post/try to bring logic 2 him.. — carl lentz (@carllentzNYC) September 24, 2017

I'm excited on a larger scale, that things like this will bring more unity, not hate. That's my prayer! And I'm sticking to it… — carl lentz (@carllentzNYC) September 24, 2017

Standing (or kneeling) for racial justice is not a distraction from "real politics". Its connected to policing, healthcare, immigration, etc — Austin Channing Brown (@austinchanning) September 24, 2017
