You dont think parents can be racist? THAT is unbelievable.

I dont think that, at the time, what his parents said to him in this clip - that cornrows make you look like a “young thug,” and that “they’re not professional,” is all that racist though….

Sounds to me like a mother looking out for her child.
Back in the day being racist meant you hated people of other races or one or 2 in particular . I don’t see how a so called racist white couple would adopt a child of color , LOVE the child , but hate him because of his color . I think he is a brain washed blm member

I think he’s probably somewhere in the middle of whatever extreme most people label him as: cultural warrior hero or brainwashed BLM member.

Not to get political at all here, but what man has not had their parents tell them to cut their hair or shave?

My parents lost their mind when I was in high school and college...lol

I got a similar lecture in different terms. Again, not even referencing the article or addressing kapernicks situation or passing any judgment. I simply had flashbacks to my own life and experience.

Agreed.

His parents could be racist, but probably are not, at least on purpose.

It was also a different time when CK was younger.

Cultural norms change, regardless of if some people like it or not.

I grew out my hair, dyed it, and grew a goatee in college.

I cut my hair and shaved prior to going home as i did not want my dad to execute me...lol

I submitted your name to Bezos and Harris DCRising.

Update your resume, wear a white shirt, press your suit, and provide 3 references.

I would be happy to serve as a reference.

Good luck sir...we are all counting on you. The fate of the team rests with you boss.

Kap excuses his mistakes by blaming others.

Same here:

Lots of hair experimentation (facial, length, style, cut, color), ear piercings, etc. Anything that wasn’t permanent.

Until I was headed home, that is….

In the words of Fletch
"And there you have it"
