black lives matter
keep proportions not affirmations
Kareem is a class act.
Can’t wait until the series “White Patriots”!
Forget the game of basketball he’s a great man because of his knowledge and education who happened to play basketball.
Great player. Greater man.
Well spoken and educated. Today’s athletes need to take lessons from the great players of the past.
Met your Dad and Mom and your brother when I lived on 212th street.
One of my all time favorite lakers of all time !
It is too bad the conclusion is incorrect.
Black folks did things to change history to stop it
Why is this not available for free?
I’ve had jobs taken from me because I’m white
I’m not qualified for a job because my skin color is too light. I get assaulted and it’s my fault because my skin color isn’t the right tone.
My forefathers all have fought and died in all conflicts. Yet I can’t be called a white patriot because that’s racist.
Smart man.
Kareem is far from being a Patriot. More like another closet BLM ignant!
Lew Alcindor no Patriot
Hes muslim and believes its ok for men to marry children once they hit puberty. 10–14 yrs of age. Most people call this paedophilia…
Who conquered America Actually ?
Who carries minorities on it’s back?
Whiteman not immigrants
We r Conquerors

Bullshlt. Black History does not OWN the “truth”. Native Americans practiced Genocide upon each other LONG before the settlers took land. Africans were enslaving each other and other races THOUSANDS of years before there even WAS a USA. And they still do, in certain areas of Africa. Whites have been enslaved, invaded and plundered just as much as any other race.
The entire Human Race have been evolving from a history of savagery. To pick out one race as the “Worst of All”, is beyond idiotic.
Now you want to be a patriot?
You’ve always been a racist, Lou Alcindor.
Go soak your head.
Why would he care for loving this country?
IT WAS ALIENS!!!
Not thid giy, unless he
This was so good it brought me to tears. I watched it on Amz Prm. It breaks my heart that black ppl, my ppl, have bn dealing w the senselessness of being hated and disrespected by people just bc of the color of our skin! Just plain madness.
The equally sad and disturbing part in all of this is not a d8mn thing has changed from back then, 1800’s to 2023. Wow, just wow.
Kareem, excellent job narrating brother.
