I was with Kap, but he has sold out to corporate interests instead of building on a grassroots level. His message will be diluted to be more 'palatable' He will be moving 'empowerment' inspired merch for the rest of his life.

The cold hard truth is this. You can't monetize a cause. I'm sure a % of the sales will go to charity, and Kaep's heart is in the right place, but it always looks greedy. It's a slippery slope to be a capitalist company, which by no means is a sin, but also try to ride for one's beliefs. I wont pay to display how "woke" I am.

I like to spend money on clothes, but you gotta make the clothes worth something. You can probably replicate that design as a decently talented screen printer with little effort

One minute it’s kap :salute:

Next it’s :Strahldup: when it comes to spending money.

Brehs would rather want kap to be broke like tommie smith and John Carlos

There’s no Harry belafonte taking care of bills for guys who rail against the system anymore

so what should kaep do?
sit idle and get no money and folks on the internet call him a real nukka when he goes broke

In the fall of 2017, Smith met with Kaepernick at a hotel restaurant in New York City. The meeting had been arranged by Glenn Kaino, an artist and documentary filmmaker who is working with Smith. “I told him he will have to find new avenues for his life,” says Smith. “He’ll need a second plan. I had a plan for my life before Mexico City. But that stopped it. I got home and I was hungry. I lost my food. I lost my house. The price was devastating.”

Both men suffered for their protest, drifting in and out of poverty; Smith for several years and Carlos for large slices of three decades. Not long after Smith returned home from Mexico City, his mother’s home was vandalized, with feces left in the mailbox and dead animals on the lawn. Both men played pro football—Smith played two regular season games for the Cincinnati Bengals and caught one pass for 41 yards, while Carlos never made it out of training camp.

You coming at me over nuance, Breh?

The cause >> Kaep's pockets

He's a football player and wasn't gonna be one for long

He shouldn't be dead broke, but, you shouldn't be rich off the struggle

King and X lived off donations and fought to the death

The NIKE thing is rubbing me the wrong way and Kaep been a little too quiet

He should be able to speak publically if he can go NIKE campaigns

I stopped watching the nfl for him, im putting that money to good use not more NIKE clothes n shoes

Again, the struggle is just that

The reason I don't trust most of these blue check negros is how much they get being black voices and towing strictly Demands/liberal lines

I like Kaep, but, give us things to do, not stuff to buy

I have a Know Your Rights tee and hat and wear the hat almost everyday

Kap isnt close to broke.

He could of used his resources and went grass roots like tariq or lavar ball.

Nike route compromised his message
