Rocker John Mellencamp featured a “take a knee” segment at a concert earlier this week at New York City’s Beacon Theater.

The “Jack and Diane” singer took a knee as he was wrapping up the song “Easy Target.”

Lyrics for the song include the words, “Well, let the poor be damned, and the easy targets, too. All are created equal, equally beneath me and you.”
