Cleveland Browns tight end SETH DEVALVE ’16 became the first white player in the NFL to kneel during the national anthem when he joined 11 black teammates in a pregame protest Aug. 21. DeValve’s wife, ERICA HARRIS DEVALVE ’17, who is African American, wrote in an essay for TheRoot.com that she was proud of her husband but wary of coverage that portrayed him as “some sort of white savior,” adding that the focus should be on “listening to the experiences and the voices of the black people who are using their platforms to continue to bring the issue of racism in the United States to the forefront.”
