Colin Kaepernick comments on Carton Banks and Steve Urekel

[Chip Skylark]

Didn’t Malcolm or someone else say the same thing? I can’t remember at the moment

The only black people who will have a problem with what he said are the "black people are the only race who does (something negative)" crowd. Which we do have a bunch here

I mean...I know Kaep isn't in ppls good graces, right now, but act dense if you want to.


Folks should know exactly what he means, if you know wassup.

Blacks like Terry Crews, Darius Rucker, Herschel Walker, Alphonso Ribeiro, Drake, etc. I mean, I can keep going ....


Cacs got an affinity for safe, emasculated, or negros.

Anything else, is seen as a threat to them, their women, etc.

For those who didn't watch the clip, he's saying that a lot of the popular shows that starred black people would have a character who white people gravitated towards and became amongst the most popular characters on the show. He mentioned Carlton Banks and Steve Urkel, but another one of those characters was JJ Evans.

 

[Pazzy]

He needs more ppl. Dude is honestly coming off like someone who didn't grow up in our community and is regurgitating what he learned in the last couple of years.

Even the way he's talking here. He dont sound black his self

Feels like he is cosplaying as black.

Sounds like you talking about yourself there.

 

[Neuromancer]

Who did Urkel assimilate with?

[Rev Leon Lonnie Love]

Aint he a half-cac who was raised by cacs

This is what black pride has come down to, huh? These are the people who are black people's voices in the front lines? I mean, more power to him but DAMN!

 

[ViShawn]

He didn't say anything wrong, if you are trying to twist yourself to look good in cacs eyes then that isn't a step forward for black people being accepted by white society. Its a step forward for whites being comfortable around acceptable negroes

I don't think Carlton and especially not Urkel TRIED to be acceptable for white people though. That's where he's wrong.

 

[kdslittlebro]

You shouldn’t have put that fake quote breh, ppl boutta ignore the actual video and respond to the quote. You know it goes

 

[YouMadd?]

Jesus Christ..... Proof that Colin Kaepernick is a try hard for 100, Alex...

 

[get these nets]

Militant method acting.

 

[ThrobbingHood]

Right message, wrong messenger. He’s trying too hard.

 

[ImLionyall]

That's not even close to what he was saying. And this sounds like its out of context, i didn't watch his special.

He's saying that white culture should not set the standards for what we find acceptable within our own community. It similar the problem with saying a Black person has "good hair" or "speaks well".

Im not surprised though...that twitter page retweets the DailyCaller and other racist cac accounts. They're trying to sow discontent in the diaspora, yet again. Why the fukk did you post this shyt?

 

[Neil Tyson]

Well I guess I better act threatening to people so I'm not called an acceptable negro.
