Editor’s Note: Whether on screen or off, Hollywood can always be counted on to keep us entertained. This is especially true when it comes to politics. Join us each week as we shine the spotlight on Tinseltown’s A-listers and their whacky and sometimes inspiring takes on today’s current events. Colin Kaepernick Compares NFL Players to Slaves
Not one to stay out of the controversial spotlight for long, former NFL player Colin Kaepernick has a new Netflix eight-part series, Colin in Black & White . The show revolves around his experiences being biracial and adopted by two white parents. One episode is receiving particular attention as he compares the NFL players parading around in front of coaches and scouts to slaves being inspected by their white masters.
“What they don’t want you to understand is what’s being established is a power dynamic,” Kaepernick explained, then added: “Before they put you on the field, teams poke, prod and examine you searching for any defect that might affect your performance. No boundary respect. No dignity left intact.” The scene then changes to an open market in the slavery era where the players are shirtless and shackled, being sold to one of the slave owners who, now in the present day, shakes hands with a football coach.
The View host Sunny Hostin thought Kaepernick was spot on, saying: “When you think about the NFL and the concussion lawsuits, you have like race-based testing to compensate them. And you know, the majority of the owners of the NFL are white men. The majority of the players are black men. So there is – that comparison he makes to slave owners and slaves is not totally unreasonable and out of bounds.
“He loves the sport, but the white owners have prevented him from doing it. They’ve colluded, and they have all the power to prevent him from doing the one thing that he loves.” Guest host Michele Tafoya didn’t agree, opining, “If they believed he could win them a Super Bowl, he would be on a team right […]

Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
