Colin Kaepernick apparently needs more attention from the media. In a preview from his new Netflix special ‘Colin in Black and White’, Kaepernick compares NFL training camps to slavery and implies that the NFL is racist and oppressive. Kaepernick, in the beginning of the video, says that when black players are on the field during training camps, that there is a power dynamic between the coaches and the players, in which the coaches cross boundaries.
“What they don’t want you to understand is what’s being established is a power dynamic. Before they put you on the field, teams pose and examine searching for any defect that might affect your performance. No boundary respect, no dignity left intact.”
Kaepernick then shows scenes depicting the selling of athletically built black men in chains, at the edge of a cotton field, comparing the slave auctioneers to head coaches and owners in the NFL. I mean, seriously? This coming from the man who made millions in the NFL and has made even more as a propaganda activist.
god @Kaepernick7 you are the absolute lowest of the low. this racially-divisive bs is exactly what people are starting to wake up to now for what overwhelmingly the large part is: manufactured by ppl like you. im so thankful that your pathetic ass never got back into the @NFL • https://t.co/xHIfCKvNSK

Colin Kaepernick compares the NFL combine, which allows all players of all races a voluntary chance to become multi-millionaires, to slavery. Anyone still defending this imbecile lacks a functional brain. pic.twitter.com/rMaKi7c6xh

Colin Kaepernick Made an Oppressive $19 Million Per Year in the NFL
Colin Kaepernick is nothing more than a jealous untalented hack who is selfish and craves attention. From 2011-2016, when he was with the San Francisco 49er’s, he was averaging 19 million dollars a year plus had a 2.5 million dollar signing bonus during his rookie year. That doesn’t sound like he was oppressed to me. When you get to try out for the NFL, you are purposely put in grueling conditions because the NFL wants the best of the best. Teams want to win games, not make sure they are representing properly. In addition to that, the NFL is compromised of almost 75% black players. How is that an indication that there’s racism or oppression. The base salary for an average NFL football player is $660,000 not to mention any advertising contracts. Ask any NYPD officer that risks his or her life everyday, if they think their base salary of $42,500 is oppressive or racist. Colin Kaepernick is a selfish child who has a lot of learning and growing up to do.
