Colin Kaepernick Is Righter Than You Know

If Hov does all this for a %1 share of a franchise

Stop looking at athletes and entertainers as people who are about black freedom and black upliftment. Most of them are in business for their selves and their pockets. That doesn't meant they don't care about black issues and black people, but its not their main agenda.

This is just about everybody though. Most people are regular people working regular jobs and taking care of their family. They don’t want to see bad happen to other blacks but let’s not act like the average black person or any person honestly is just all selfless and stuff.

Sony was actually banking off of this deal, why stop?
wasn't the deal that Disney pays for all the merchandising and Sony keeps all the profit?

I'm waiting for Sony to announce that teaming up with Venom in SM3 will be Sandman

gonna pull X3 and Dark Phoenix

They really gonna put a blemish on this impeccable performance by Holland

Dude was on his way to the legit trilogy talk, really hope its still good

Can you even name the other owners with more than a percent ownership?

Whats their net worth?
What do their wives look like?

Why do you know this about Jay Z and not his business partners?.

Umar another black narcissistic dude pumping the poor with speaking points and energy. He know black folks desperate for leadership and direction. He stepped in to play the role that the likes of Jay Z and pastors been doing forever.

"Sidenote" by this logic the same needs to be applied to Umar Johnson.

Umar isnt an athlete or entertainer. He is a school psychologist that is about Pan-Africanism and uplifting the black race from this dredge we are in.

Stop trolling

Jay Z the hypocrite

when has Jigga ever not been about his paper thou? this da same since 96.

 

[deuce king]

not trying to attack you or anything...when I say the following:

you aren't black. you aren't going to understand certain things from a black perspective. there's history to take into context and reasons for the skepticism and the labelling.
we have a history of having ppl that so called speak for us all being used against us to comfort our oppressors while we get nothing.
we also have a history of ppl that supposedly speak for us that go after the lime light and the money while we get nothing.
we have a history of infiltration and getting duped/the short end of the stick/etc.

intent and agenda are two words that ppl should be thinking about. jay is slick and has been slick. i'm sure more details will leak but he looks funny in the light.

When you say “while we get nothing”....what EXACTLY are you hoping WE get??

Dominique Foxworth made a great point on First Take today. Hov basically pulled a bait and switch with the Nets. They used him as the face when they were trying to get Barclays up and he said something along the lines of affordable housing being adjacent or close to the area but it never happened. Jay then sold his minuscule share, profited and now the area is gentrified as hell. Something to keep in mind as he tries to become the face of a movement.

 

[VARNELL HILL]

/\ ****** been tip toeing around that barclay's/nets thing since it's re-surfaced due to this NFL deal. ***** dead *** got gentrification bars

That one might be an even bigger case of hypocrisy...but there's no social justice spin for that one

 

[wr]

Can we get some before and after Jayntrificatiom pics of the area ?

 

[VARNELL HILL]

Can we get some before and after Jayntrificatiom pics of the area ?

Before we go there...just look at the sheer IRONY in this photograph

This is when he stood on the rooftop of 560 State Street where he allegedly kept a stash house at.

SOMEONE SPIN THIS PLEASE

On the surface he brings awareness to things, but he’s notorious for leaving out key details and framing things in a way that’s arguably deceptive. In a sense a lot of writers and journalists do similar things though.

I really hate Shaun king

He's the male Rachel Dolezal

 

[VARNELL HILL]

The players 1000% dictate what's played in practice. His own teammates did that to him

Right you know damn well the coach and players were messing wit him. They prolly laughed about it.

 

[Proposition Joe]

He's the male Rachel Dolezal

And a scam artist

 

[cedric ceballos]

And a scam artist

And “a victim of his own reporting” whenever he posts misinformation.

 

[ninjahood]

This is the type of stuff we need to see from our top black athletes.

so basically you want celebrities to have a price...cuz if you take this to its natural end, "as long as ______gives_____ he can do w/e he wants... essentially da space Jay-z already occupies.

Castro volunteered to help residents in New Orleans when America wouldn’t. He gave asylum to black power leaders who were being hunted in America by the government. I have zero issues with Castro

maybe you should see how he was a ruthless dictator to his own people...

 

[ninjahood]

If you are despicable enough to try and monetize black plight then you should be called out.

Sharpton?
