Rev. Jesse Jackson said President Trumps criticism of NFL players kneeling during the national anthem were an example of the slave-master-servant mentality" in a interview with The New York Times.
They should all kneel, not against the flag, but against the interference by Mr. Trump with their First Amendment rights, Jackson said.
If the cotton pickers dont pick cotton, the industry doesnt move; the N.F.L. and N.B.A. players dont play the game, it doesnt move.
Jacksons comments follow Trumps weekend criticism of NFL players who choose to kneel during The Star-Spangled Banner," a protest started by quarterback Colin Kaepernick as a statement against racial injustice.
"Wouldn't you love to see one of these NFL owners, when somebody disrespects our flag, to say, 'Get that son of a bitch off the field right now,' " Trump said at a Friday night rally in Alabama. " 'He is fired.' "
The remarks from Trump led to widespread protests at NFL games across the county on Sunday, as well as criticism from athletes in multiple professional sports leagues.
The president doubled down on his position, saying those who do not stand for the anthem are disrespecting the United States.
In comments to reporters on Sunday, Trump insisted his criticism of the NFL players is not about race.
This has nothing to do with race. I never said anything about race. This has nothing to do with race or anything else. This has to do with respect for our country and respect for our flag, Trump said.
And?
FU Jackson

The race hustlers are on the loose!
In case of any shakedowns ol Jes wants to be in on it.

His mentality is of the tribesmen who sold their people into slavery, enriching themselves on the misery of others and trying to perpetuate thst misery.
No Jessie you have it wrong If the fans don’t watch and pay, the game doesn’t move. Which you are beginning to see.
White man magic!!!!!!
If multi-million dollar salaries are slavery, where do I get to sign up?
Shut it down, shut it all down. NFL, NBA, ESPN, its nothing but trash. Jessie, if you want to kill the pro sports golden goose for the next generation of thugs, please hurry up and do so.
You got that right. Je$$e Jack$$on is looking to snag him some NFL money.

God doesn't write checks.
A machine to pick cotton you say? How could this possibly be so. The white man's magic is strong. Tell me more of this wonderful thing of which you speak.
I will at once inform Jesse of this development. It should please him to bring his people out of bondage. He will love the white devil forevermore.
Jesse Jackson is the Slave Master of the Democrat plantation.
Who run Bartertown?

Wrong again, Jesse.
But you really are supporting communist revolutionaries, murderers and other criminals.
