You Don’t Own Black People
Bingo Was a son of a bitch. AirBud was a son of a bitch Beethoven Balto Wishbone, Scooby Doo all sons of bitches. Martellus Bennett is not.

I'm ok with being fired for what I believe in.
—
Martellus Bennett (@MartysaurusRex) September 23, 2025The idea of @realDonaldTrump thinking that suggesting firing me from football, confirms that he thinks that it's all I can do as a Black man

Let's take away the one thing that a black man can do. That'll set em straight. Naw bruh. We diverse. We aren't just field niggas anymore.

Martellus Bennett (@MartysaurusRex) September 23, 2025I'll jump when I want. I'll sit when I want. I'll kneel when I want. I'll clap. Sing. Flip and I'll say what I want. You ain't DeeBo.

Trying to figure out how #TakeAKnee is un-American but letting people die because of lack of health insurance is patriotic
—
Luisa Haynes (@wokeluisa) September 23, 2025It's telling that resentment towards wealth in sports is always directed at black athletes and not the vastly wealthier franchise owners.

Don't allow racists to reframe #TakeAKnee as being a debate about anthem & flag. It's a protest of police brutality & racism... 🙄

“U Bum” - That Is All
U bum @StephenCurry30 already said he ain't going! So therefore ain't no invite. Going to White House was a great honor until you showed up!
—
LeBron James (@KingJames) September 23, 2025Easily the most forceful answer at Warriors Media Day on the White House decision has come from Steph Curry https://t.co/01av461eCZ

Lesean McCoy (@CutonDime25) September 23, 2025A #POTUS whose name alone creates division and anger. Whose words inspire dissension and hatred can't possibly "Make America Great Again"

People Trump has angrily attacked in the last few days:
1. Jemele Hill
2. Colin Kaepernick
3. Steph Curry
Notice a trend?
—
Judd Legum (@JuddLegum) September 23, 2025Meanwhile Kaepernick has transparently donated nearly $1 million & Trump has lied about pretty much every donation he claims to have given.

Clint Smith (@ClintSmithIII) September 23, 2025****
We have the best NBA player in the world calling 45 a "bum" & one of the best NFL RBs calling him an a-hole. What. A. Time.
—
Jemele Hill (@jemelehill) September 23, 2025Trump used harsher language to describe Kaepernick than he used for the Neo-Nazi who killed Heather Heyer.

Trump is referencing the power of white supremacy. The power of white owners over black players. Of white politician over black population.
