- Colin Kaepernick gave a powerful speech in Amsterdam when he received Amnesty International's Ambassador of Conscience Award 2018. His former teammate and close friend, Eric Reid, was present at the ceremony and handed him the award.
Notice how much time he gives Reid. Selfless and giving from the heart.
I only noticed how unintelligent he sounds, ya know how you can just tell some people aren't that smart just by listening to them speak???? The struggle is real in the NFL!!!! haha
Yes, we do. You are a great example of that Kevin B
Kevin B. Hes not smart but wise, and wisdom has long life in one hand and riches and wealth in the other. So before you try and down Kap what selfless act have you done lately. Repent and get on the narrow path that few find.
Kevin B., You have listened to liars so long, you cannot absorb anything else!😂😂😂😂😂
Reid is Colin's puppet. But, he does have a job.
This young man is everything I would love my sons to embody and embrace. He is standing tall on the shoulders of giants, his sacrifice is duly noted and highly appreciated! We love you Colin and will always and forever stands with you. Also a massive thank you 🙏🏾 to your friend Eric and your family.♥️♥️♥️🇯🇲 love you both my brothers
devinngeorge Please don’t bother with your ignorance and stupidity on something that I am well up to date on. I don’t need to propaganda machine to teach and educate me and my children, I do it myself and maybe you should take the time out to do the same. With knowledge comes growth, maybe you should try it before trying to tell someone else how to like her life and how to teach my children about the real world. Their real world 🌍, ps if you didn’t notice I am Jamaican/British, Marcus Garvey should be a reference when talking to me. Freedom, justice and equality for all.
Colin = *PIECE OF HUMAN SHIT* Period...!
Trev Mac why are you telling us things about your family that no one asked you about. Don’t you know how to keep your mama and papa secret by now!
Where's Colin now Mammy??? that 3rd stringer NFL bust only knelled to get attention for himself..I have a better chance at playing QB in the NFL ha ha ha ha ..we put his pretentious black ass out of business for good
@denise brown; I agree.
Colin looks like he was born in Wakanda! Love ya bruh!
Ow yeah!
GTFOH...
For sure
2020 wow, so proud of you brother you scacrficed but remained resilient. BLM.
He looks like a KING. Greater than a football player. He's nobody's property, running up and down the football field.
Yes and I love his speech. So unapologetic and truthful with it. He does indeed look like a King and I'm so proud of him standing up for our men. Thank you Colin Kapernick.
Lmao this is so fake
I luv u Colin from Trinidad and keep doing what u doing
Black and brown need to step up together. We've had enough of the discrimination. I know my black brothers struggle is real like mine is real. 🤜🏿🤛🏾
I’m in brother ✌🏽
And these men should be given their jobs back!!
The brother is passionate about his cause and his words runs deep in my soul. What a message!!! Delivered with simplicity, eloquence and amazing articulation! God bless you Colin. You're a beacon of hope and love, for us people of color everywhere!
Well said!
I applaud you Bro.Kapernick. YOU HAVE Spoken. I hear your ❤ HEART. WOW. Love is the root cause. Sounds like. Dr. King. Blessings to YOU. YOU took a stand by bending a knee without violence. What a risk...WHAT A MAN..FEARLESS!!!!
Love you brother thank you for looking out for us 🙏🙏🙏
Thanks Colin for your Luv for your help & justice for all black & brown folks blessings
HE IS A DISGRACE TO BLACK S
John F Bonfilio Because you say so? Fuck outta here.
what ??? u smoke cracks ??? ahahahaha ...
Man I’m not even from America wheen I listen too you I feel like crying omg your hero
@@Emily-ho5fc No shit he did it for publicity and attention, he's a famous qb and he wanted that to go to work spreading around the idea that racism hasn't gone away. And systematic racism does exist dude.
Colin Kaepernick makes all mother's proud. This speech demonstrates leadership which is essential to address some of the horrible aspects of American society and is way more important that football.
WHAT IS WRONG WITH AMERICAN SOCIETY???????????????
*slow clap turns into loud applause*

Roberta winter: please dont leb mindless idiot's sway you from standing up for social injustice THANK YOU😊
Roberta Winter thanks for those wise words Roberta
YES!!!!!!!!!!!
"Love is at the root of our resistance"
So....because a person hasn’t “struggled” your saying they shouldn’t use the platform they have in an attempt to bring awareness to people who actually have struggled? Why? What’s wrong with using what’s he’s been blessed to have to shed light on those less fortunate? There is literally nothing wrong with wanting to help, no matter what social, political or racial background you come from and The idea that someone is demonized for wanting to do so doesn’t show doesn’t show his lack of character, it shows others.
Anantavijaya Das well at the end of the day I respect anyone’s opinion whether they differ from mine or are the same. I’m a 34 year old black man. I’ve had my experiences with the police, some I deserved (speeding, DUI, car accident) some I didn’t (Walking in a nice neighborhood, being searched outside a store on Black Friday (the irony) and just being in the wrong place at the wrong time. I’m not knocking how anyone feels no matter what side they stand on the issue. I do think however, people should realize we are not all the same. We have not all had the same experiences with the police or in life and general and because of that we should not dismiss another persons feelings or life experiences. I’m not trying to start a race debate or anything but as someone who has experienced racism from coworkers, friends and yes the police, I’m not going to pretend it doesn’t exist to satisfy anyone’s desire to sweep it under the rug. And that’s not a shot at anyone in this comment section either. Just my opinion.
Bullshit! Hate and ignorance is at the root of your “resistance” !
@Anantavijaya Das it does not require someone to suffer something to speak against it,if you see an evil going on in your society,it does not require you to suffer the evil to speak against it,slavery in america was also fought by people who were not slaves themselves.
R Stone yea, this is over a year old I’m not having this conversation with someone for the millionth time. Believe what works for you boss man.
What a touching speech. Kap stands apart from most NFL players.
OH HOW TOUCHING
@@xpress021hundred Bitter much bitch, lol ! U little mad or big mad, hilarious....I luv it! #IstandwithKap
Xxpresso0 woah you guys are completely out of your minds. Why does this upset you so much? Why does giving a voice to people murdered with impunity & facing daily violence & oppression & humiliation from the state (& the president & his lackeys & frothing cultists as you appear to be) make you so damn angry? He's taking a stand against state violence against the people. Aren't you guys supposed to hate the state? What is wrong with what he's saying, anyway? He's completely right about what people face. Maybe take a breather & realise just how insane you sound when you fly off the handle this much over a man protesting state violence. Something isn't right in your head when you get this enraged over a perfectly just protest.
speechless … now it's ur turn … do smthing bruh … plz do smthing !!!
Darc Gibson I'll answer that for you with an excerpt from Malcolm X that CK just used : *_"I'm a human being first and foremost and as such I'm for who ever and what ever benefits humanity as a whole"_* . These kinds of people are _inhumane_ and most cannot be helped. Sometimes we have no choice then to let them bathe in their misery and hate while praying their offspring don't follow them.
Among the only athletes I truly admire.
BOCHES YOU ARE FULL OF IT JOHN USN
you should admire the 6 young men raising the flag at IWO JIMA (3 died hours later) not this asshole -ASSHOLE
Not an athlete anymore
u still don't get it with ur narrow mind … he's more than an athlete … he's a HERO … and will be remembered for a long long time … and nothing u can do abt it ...
@@anomarpye7385 Facts... history made!
Mr. Kaepernick is a hero and a role model. Thank you for your sacrifice.
Move over Barry Sanders CK my favorite athlete of all time
@@Mont3000 Teaching the youth to hate America
@@islandblader Shut up, ignorant
He is a hypocrite, he takes money from Nike, which uses forced labor in China to make its shoes and pretends he cares about justice. He's for justice as long as it doesn't interfere with his income.
@@lpappas474 sucks to be so dumb. I will pray for you, but in the meantime don’t procreate 😉
Praise and prayers to Colin for standing up!!
HE IS NOT STANDING UP HE IS A KNEELER
@@MrJbonfilio Praise and prayers for Colin kneeling!!
@@MrJbonfilio and a liar.
Børre Stige fuck this hypocritical asshole
@@andreshernandez1180 fuck you
Thanks for standing your ground for what you believe, Colin Kapernick.
SEND HIM TO BOOT CAMP STAITEN HIM OUT
@@MrJbonfilio Send yourself to school and learn how to spell
This beautiful human being has touched so many. Martin is embodied in the soul of this man! He will overcome. He is us and we are him. Stay beautiful my sweet brother.
Cindy Rolle What you said is so beautiful. He is us and we are him. His roots are reaching out to him, as did Moses in the Bible.
Largesse1000 Aptoide After carefully examining the Colin Kaepernick situation, you are telling the truth. I do not care for race-baiting at all. And I have found out, that all of this is behind him not being able to throw the ball down the field as he supposed to, and being pussy-whipped by his supposed to be black girlfriend. I wish him well.
Hes lying to you.
This speech will be in history books, especially the “love of our existence” sequence.
I agree. He will be also. Like Muhammad Ali and John Carlos and Tommie Smith.
He will definitely be in history books. Nike just signed him as their leading figure.
Best speech I heard since 1963!
Dwad3flash1_ yes, a hypocritical asshole raised in privilege by adoptive white parents who gave him everything in a country where one can become a millionaire by throwing a football around. Of course, no wonder he feels oppressed and mistreated.
Why don't we have a Statue of Kaepernick, and Brave people like him, instead of Confederate Staues
Even Rocky has a statue and he’s a fictional character.
You are ABSOLUTELY RIGHT!!!! One on the East Coast one on the West COAST!!!💖
@Rob YOU ARE THE TROLL HERE I SEE. SIT THEFK DOWN, AND LISTEN TO SOME OF THE THUMBS UP HERE BC YOU CLEARLY ARE THE MINORITY & OUT NUMBERED OF THE THUMBS DOWNERS ON HERE. NOW SIT CHO ASS DOWN
EXACTLY
That is the complant cellnumbers sir take serious action sir
We liked you on the field, but we love you off the field brotha KAP... The cause joins you!
Taking a stand knowing it would cost him his career, his way of life and millions in earnings black listed from a career he worked hard to achieve.. Most of us would not even give up a minimum wage job much less hive up millions. I'm proud of him.
He sacrificed nothing. His failing career caused all this.
Don't worry about his bank account. He's not stupid, no where near it. He's gonna make way more money with his activism and hopefully make a change too.

It may have cost him his millions in the NFL but because of being found guilty of collusion by the NFL owners, managers etc. he was paid big time and Nike endorsing him there's some more millions for him. Don't worry about his bank account! He's doing just fine. See, when God is on your side nothing can stop. Thank You! Mr. Colin Kaepernick for taking a stand for the voiceless! Your parents raised you right!!
He was benched and on his way out as a starter in the league when he did this.
Salute to Colin Kaepernick, as well as Amnesty International for acknowledging Kaepernick's courage & conviction for justice.
Touchdown for the truth. We need more Kaps in the world
Craig Twort Here, Here
Amen!
Hell no! Ask him why he won't separate from Nike? Why did he turn down his option to resign? These football meathead is not a leader he's a donkey 🐴
✊🏾 this man makes me so proud, and became a real martyr for black civil rights in the US and across the world. I salute and love you my brother.
Yes We love you "Kap."
That’s not what martyr means
Indeed it was a figure of speech, he was professionally assassinated and blackballed by the NFL.
@Delphic Tableau trying to explain to Rob is clearly falling on deaf ears. He's probably the same guy who thinks kneeling has to do with the flag and thinking it's disrespectful to our men and woman who fought for our country when really it had nothing to do with that. It had to do with the system of oppression and how it's being ignored. People of color see it and understand it because we deal with it everyday.
@Delphic Tableau HAHAHAHAHAHHA yeah especially when he starts sticking up for communist murderers what a hero
When he said he fights for anyone suffering at the hands of police brutality. I kept on thinking about the time the Catalan police officers where repeatedly stomping on women who were in line to vote.
Sad, very sad to see indeed...May the Lord Jesus have mercy upon us....
Outstanding.
Beautiful man, beautiful speech. I love you Kaepernick
Best speech I heard since 1963!
A very historically and contemporarily specific and powerful speech. But more importantly he backs such words with action and his own money via his foundation. So glad this was posted!

Colin stands for right cause, we should support him.
SEND HIM TO BOOT CAMP TO LEARN RESPECT
Love is at the root of our resistance.
I dont.
What manner of man. Colin Kaepernick like so many freedom fighters before him, will be remembered for a very long time, even after he leaves this planet like the rest of us.

LOVE IS BLIND
Thank you Colin Kapernick
For what?
Wonderful and so justly deserved. I admire him!
This made me tear up because he’s so right, he’s always stood up for what was right despite losing everything, he is a hero, we need people like this
Sheila Cota yesss!!!
Sheila Cota what did he sacrifice he’s getting more money from Nike smh
@@buddyboycandy he just got that contract a few weeks ago. Come on man it's people like you.
Sheila Cota he’s an idiot not a hero disrespecting he the national anthem
@@buddyboycandy it's the fact that he even put himself in that position to loose everything and what was on the line is bigger then just money the man is obviously still going to want to have some income so obviously he did the deal with Nike that don't take away from his legitimacy and what he sacrificed he deserves all the good things that come his way after that if that means a Nike deal so be it.
Kap has the last laugh though! Do you understand now
True
Soooooo so!! True. May GOD Bless & keep you. ❣❣
You woke up all of the people for Police Brutality. KUDOS We love you from Kauai Hawaii You have the Aloha Spirit. Mahalo
live a good decent life, respect your elders, treat your parents right, you will never meet police brutality, Long story short take the high road. Colin never lived a black life, just like Obama. There is no Aloha spirit in Colin, because Aloha is a two way street. He got no respect for the cops, they will never respect him either.
ivomonroemiller I wanna come to Hawaii but it's too expensive.😭
@@padussia you will.
@@nohea9936 You sound like a fool. Have you ever lived the Black Life?

Colin is a famous NFL player but for me, I only heard of him when he took the knee for the oppressed
colin my hero
Awesome young man! Powerful and living on purpose. Inspiring. Handling his deep pain and turning into activism.
Strong example of what a true leader should be. Speaking truth gives me hope that there are still some with integrity and qualities beyond fame or money that is still alive and present among a few who will stand against what they know is wrong
This has got to touch the hearts and souls of everyone in the hearing of these powerful yet harsh truths. Thank you brother!
What courage! Speak your truth, sir! Love will conquer in the end. God bless you. This comes to you all the way from the Caribbean, Trinidad and Tobago, to be exact. A well deserved honour.
Colin for Noble Peace Prize 2018!!
We are so proud of you .
What a prophecy !!!
A person like you restored my faith in humanity and the beauty of kindnesses, passion, integrity! I salute you and love you!!
😢😢😢😢😢😢 love is all we need.
Collin, thanks a million times for your fight for the oppressed
I love this man!!🙌
Blessings rain down upon him, ALWAYS!🙏
Keep tilling the soil, bruh!👌
We need YOU!👍😉
They are still killing us in our home own home without any cause. Look what happened to Botham Jean in Dallas. When is it going to end? I support you 100% my brother.
One of the greatest speeches I've ever heard God bless Kap!

In September 2018, i remember going to Macy's to purchase some Nikey...I told the Sales Clerk with a hand on my heart, I was doing this for Colin Kaepernick...I thought he was amazing, bold, fearless and courageous...He was my hero, took a stand even when it wasn't popular...Lord, may we listen to his outcry, thank you for giving him a voice for the voiceless...Also, Nikey thank you for believing in him when everyone discarded him...You both rock: Colin Kaepernick and Nikey.
Kap!
My brother we love you Jamaica Stan with you

How could anyone not love this beautiful soul?!
You are my hero for having the courage to do what you did and you'll never be forgotten!!!! may God continue to bless you always.
