"Knock the Vote" video response

As I watched the video "Dear young people, Don't vote" by an organization who call themselves "Knock the Vote" I will say that I responded with like maybe a couple of feelings that got to me when I watched this for the first time. After watching this video with my eyes both wide open from surprise I either felt surprised for what the people in the video had to say or I felt quite offended from it but I think it was meant to happen to young viewers.
What I thought about this video is that it showed to me what I do not usually see from seniors as they show that they just make fun of young people for not doing something very important for society.

What this video says about the people who go out and vote is that they want everyone to be involved with these elections but that is a problem for them because many and many of the youth are not getting themselves to be part of this situation.  This makes the people who vote get upset with them and start to mock them for it. They mock them by saying that they are a bunch of individuals who whine for their own problems, and say that know they won't vote and it sounds like they are betting on those odds. Besides, the seniors get to vote for them and it will count.

This video's objective was to mainly show a message to the young with this mockery that was meant to encourage them to vote in elections. But to be honest at first I really do not know how this this video would encourage the youth as i thought it would discourage them more. Then I figured that it wasn't the case. This video encourages the youth by making them highly feel effected after being known that they are being made fun of from the elderly and so they would not just let this slide by. So now it would make them stand up for themselves to prove that they could make themselves become involved with voting for elective candidates.

Response to Colin Kaepernick "JUST DO IT' Nike Ad

What I think about this Nike Ad that Colin Kaepernick protest is involved with is that to me it is very motivational and like some people I am confused why people are so angry against Colin's protest or this most recent Nike Advertisement since I see nothing wrong with it. The responses that this Nike Ad is getting is a mess since there are people are saying that they are against to what Nike is doing and say that Colin Kaepernick isn't a hero and sacrificed nothing. They also post pictures in social media of them destroying their Nike products, but there are also other people mocking these destroyers.

What I think of this is that this is a truly unnecessary way of people showing that they boycott on Nike and it really bothers me that there are people against this protest for social justice, against someone who is trying to do the right thing for the community.

But there are other responses which are positive that had changed my mind of these negative comments. These people are saying things like, Colin and Nike did the right thing by working together to make this inspiring and motivational advertisement. There are also people who are defending this advertisement against the ones against it, like the ones who are mocking people for destroying their Nike products.

  

Positive comments from Colin Kaepernick "JUST DO IT" Nike Commercial 2018 from Youtube

From what these people are saying about Colin's Nike ad this is exactly what these people who are hating on this protest on social justice that Colin Kaepernick had took a knee for should see as the right picture. I really wish that there are more people or something better like there are always people positive instead of people who take action no reason to take negative actions against one simple message.

I have to say that I respect the people who have a good eye on what this Nike Advertisement was trying to show something good to a community.

I am going to be 100% honest that I think Nike did do this as a main goal to earn profit by hiring Colin because it made sense for them to do it since after Colin Kaepernick performed that action in 2016 and showed his message to gain rights for others, and then Nike had the opportunity or advantage over this to spread this message more and more by creating an advertisement which will make Nike gain a lot of profit from it. But also I am really sure that that even if Nike did this for the money, I still think that they really care about the racial injustice and I believe thats another reason why they had to make this advertisement.
