NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernicks conversion to social activism coincided with his romancing of a hip hop DJ of Egyptian descent who has frequently spoken about perceived racial injustices and Islamaphobia in the U.S.
Nessa Diab, left, and Colin Kaepernick. (Twitter/AP) Kaepernick, 28, who has come under fire for his decision to remain seated during the playing of The Star-Spangled Banner before San Francisco 49ers games, reportedly began dating Hot 97 DJ and MTV host Nessa Diab in July 2015. A few months later, his social media posts began to reflect the Black Lives Matter and Muslim activism of Diab.
"History!" Kaepernick wrote on Instagram Oct. 15, when he marked 50 years since the Black Panther Party was founded.
Kaepernick has posted 170 photos or videos on his Instagram account in the four years since he created it. Most of his first 128 posts were pics of him in football gear, publicity photos or shots taken with friends. But 31 of his last 42 posts have strong social justice connotations, often featuring quotes from radical Nation of Islam leader Malcolm X, Black Panthers founder Huey Newton and cop killer Assata Shakur. During a Sunday news conference about the flag flap, Kaepernick dressed in a black hat with a large, white X and a T-shirt that featured photos of Cuban despot Fidel Castro and Malcolm X.

Should see him leading Trump protests before long.
Blame it on the woman?
Blame it on Kaepernick. He should have more sense than to listen to her.
Ah but the New Black Panther leader in Twxas says Trump is correct
Another Black Panther is organizing for Trump
Methinks you are going to see the Niners with a new starting QB and back-up on opening day.
Let’s remember he’s a lightly educated 28 year old kid all starry eyed over some hot young arab POA.
No amount of fun in the sack is worth the millions this will cost him.
This picture is dated Nov. 16, 2014. That's before he and team mate Aldon Smith were seeing Nessa the Not So Strict Muzzy at the same time. Him not showing respect has nothing to do with islam. It has nothing to do with BLM or oppression. It has everything to do with him being a low life scum.
Looking at him I am not ever sure he is Black. He looks more like and Arab to me. I guess the fact that he is dark does suggest that he has some Black ancestry.
I actually wonder if he even knows what he is.
IIRC, he’s the 3rd string QB and about to be cut from the team.
I kinda feel sorry for him in a way ..
not !
He’s lucky his initials are CK,,, FU anyways punk..
Well, with her feminine whiles(sp?) she has uh, ‘persuaded’ him that he’s oppressed. Or something. As a young guy once, those particular power of persuasion can alter the sense of reality.
Most males would do anything she ask!
I just checked. Even the NBA has rules to stand respectfully in a line during the National Anthem. It's incomprehensible that the NFL doesn't.
He was born of a biracial couple and adopted by white parents. FWIW.
You can lead a fool to koolaid, but he can’t be forced to drink-looks like this idiot is drinking it daily-what an ass-I hope he gets benched for the whole season...
good find. The man makes millions and yet acts this way to a country which gave him the opportunity to make that much. Meanwhile some of us scrape by making our way through life. We just manage the bills, buy store brand foods, no honeymoon since we married 21 years ago, no more than 5 vacations to the smoky mountains or GA, next state over, but we never take off the government. Our kids have packed lunch no freebies, etc Now my son becomes a marine tomorrow morning after the crucible.
Oh and we are white and work, but we have each other and know there are others worse off than us.
These dumb a@@ make me sick, just as the lying scum off the media at CNN, MSNBC, NBC, ABC, etc.
Poison.
I have dated much better looking women than her, and trust me, these women are not always beautiful on the inside once you get to know them.
She plays the victim and yet is a racist agitator.
I’ll remember him as some self-righteous d-bag that gets all the derision he deserves until he apologizes for his actions.
He can do as he pleases. Here’s hoping the backlash knocks some sense into him before he’s too far gone.
This dude should be kicked out of the NFL. He’s libel to go jihad in the middle of a game!
