Kareem Abdul-Jabbar Blasts Fox News For Turning Colin Kaepernick Into “Black Grinch”

You can read Abdul-Jabbar’s full take on the situation below.

“Technically, pointing out a fact isn’t “bashing.” America’s forefathers did indeed steal the land from the indigenous people, often over their dead bodies. Just as indigenous people stole land from other tribes.

That’s just historical fact. Like pointing out to grandpa that his zipper is open. I’m not bashing him, just stating a truth. So, why the panicky attacks on Kaepernick?

Clearly, there’s something much more insidious going on here: the sustained attempt to steal Kaepernick’s political voice by characterizing him as un-American.

The Black Grinch who wants to steal White Christmas American values.”
