While NFL players took a knee in silent protest during the National Anthem to rally against police brutality and racism, countless of others (including Stevie Wonder) have also taken a knee.

One of the latest public figures to take a knee is Democrat Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee from Houston, Texas, who gave a powerful speech protesting Trump’s anti-NFL rhetoric.

“There is no regulation that says that these young men cannot stand against the dishonoring of their mothers by you calling them, ‘fire the son of a b,'” she said. “That is racism. You cannot deny it, you cannot run [from] it, and I kneel in honor of them… I kneel in front of the flag and on this floor. I kneel in honor of the First Amendment. I kneel because the flag is a symbol for freedom. I kneel because I’m going to stand against racism. I kneel because I will stand with those young men, and I’ll stand with our soldiers, and I’ll stand with America, because I kneel.”
