Are these the actionable items Jay Z was talking about?

[Standing on business]

One of the weirdest things to me about that whole fiasco was Eric Reid standing with Kaep, criticizing Jay-z hard, but still suiting up and playing on Sunday.



All parties involved got a big bag while we all argued on the Internet about who we agreed with and who was right or wrong

We were crazy to think a football league could enact social change.

I can understand why idealist become cynical

Jay-Z pretending to be pro-black should have tipped you off.

I still haven't watched any superbowl since the kneeling
I don't care how many black singers they put on halftime

since some people treat it like religion there was a chance.

What exactly do you want or expect to happen? The NFL isn't going to disband as an entity so you can forget that. so if they're still existing and making money then the only thing can you can do is stick them up for that money which is what happened. They pledged money to black causes. Kaep cut a deal with them and got a tryout. And now black musicians are making money on the Super Bowl.

So you just wanted people to keep kneeling and eventually it becomes a non-story and nobody care anymore.

There are two parts to a protest. The demonstration to get the attention and then the demands that need to be made. So what demands would you have suggested for the NFL in this situation?

Kaep didnt sell out for the "bag." He literally got the money that was owed to him you stupid mfs. I dont blame him for bowing out because as soon as the NFL came with the "bag," all the players and celebs that were riding for him turned on him. Kaep didnt kneel to become a political leader or any of that shyt. His main goal was to bring awareness to police brutality and he did that in a huge way that he wasnt expecting. Its like our people got this fukking jesus complex to wherr we expect one motherfukker to be this big perfect person that will save us and lead us to the promise land. Kaep is far from perfect but he didnt deserve that disrespect he had got from alot of our people man when he took the biggest risk in all this bullshyt.

Why is the black celebrities getting the bag considered turning on "Kaep". The mission was accomplished right? Kaep brought the attention to police brutality and black (some) people got money. The protest was never against the NFL right? The NFL was never supposed to stop police brutality so was the end goal here not accomplished?

When he was asked about Kaep he said we're past kneeling and should have some actionable items. Jay is moving just for the bag.
I guess having Jlo and Shakira perform and now having Dr Dre is going forward.

Boy, ain't no way boy.

you just woke up and read about the halftime show huh?

It’s numerous threads on it already. Nice try at trying to talk shyt about a black man who’s done more for other black folk than you ever have

And the sad part is all the players ended up agreeing with him years later.

They knew he was right but they was scared to risk their careers for it and thats totally understandable. I have no issues with that because i know what it takes to get to that level. But for those who came out shytting on him. fukk your personal beefs and feelings. When real shyt is being done, you put the bullshyt to the side and either support or dont say anything to fukk up something that is representing all of us and how we feel.

Ouch

At the end of the day these celebrities are not going to let you stop their bag. Lol at being more mad at the consumer than the people that provide the entertainment. We can’t watch the shyt of they don’t perform right? These fools got folks at home arguing about watching them while they party together in private. Whatever man.
