American rapper Kanye West has urged NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick to "tell your experience directly" to US President Donald Trump.
In 2016, Kaepernick was criticised by Trump after he became the first player to kneel during the national anthem to highlight racial injustice.
Last month, Trump said Nike had sent a "terrible message" when they named the 30-year-old as the face of the brand's new advertising campaign.
West urged them to open a "dialogue".
Writing on Twitter, he said: "Reaching out to Colin Kaepernick.
"I would like you to speak with the president to tell him your experience directly. Let's have a dialogue not a diatribe."
It comes days after West - now known as Ye - told American news outlet TMZ he had been calling Kaepernick in a bid to take him to the White House....

A waste of time but Trump’s has it. He’ll listen without giving in. Democrats are scared that more blacks will take notice.
As Kaepernick’s protests began to gain media attention in 2016, Nessa tweeted, “I’m always proud of him and always will be @Kaepernick7 . Please take the time to UNDERSTAND what he is saying.” She then posted this link to a transcript of Kaepernick’s explanation.

why? so this washed up QB kneels against the flag and anthem and suddenly he’s MLK Jr? Ridiculous.
Kanye is a troll. I knew this was too good to be true.
Trump is serious about prison reform. He has been the most successful president since Lincoln in actually helping blacks economically. There is no reason for DJT not to talk to get exposure for what he is already doing for blacks. Trump is getting close to burning the Mob’s plantation down.
If this meeting ever happens, I expect Colin will come with some sort of Minder who will do most of the actual talking.
Hopefully such a Minder won’t be a member of Louis Farrakhans Nation of Islam.
Colin will allow himself to be used as a way to get close to the president. He will be quiet while the grown folks are talking, and give hearty ‘High-Fives’ to his pals when the meeting is concluded. High Fives, he understands.
If Trump meets with him, Trump should play the national anthem in the Oval Office, and see if dip wad kneels.
No. Absolutely not. There is no reason the two should meet and I’m questioning Kanye’s motives here.
This is kinda like Trump flying half way round the world to talk to Little Rocket Man. The rhetoric defined Trump’s position and he didn’t give up anything to potentially bring peace to the Korean Peninsula. No one else could have possibly pulled it off. If you accept the left’s talking points about why they’re kneeling Trump is already taking action to remedy these problems in the black community. Trump is in the process of robbing the welfare pimps of their talking points. Of course DJT will not back off on his trademark position on kneeling. It is distasteful dealing with scummy pawns like Kapperclown but if in the end it helps in burning down the plantation down, so be it.
Trump is the peoples President. He needs to discuss differences with them.
The stumbimg block inthis scenario is linda sansour has her meat hooks in colinns girl friend & has been running this whole operation.
Imo, the hit to america’s original pass time NFL has been taken down by linda sansour’s jihad
nothing wrong with what Kanya said...This type of communication is what scares the demacrat party...open dialogue means that there is an alternative...I don’t see Colin Kaepernick fallowing Kanyas advice but I see others within the black community listening to this suggestion and doing so.
Kaepernick is a brainwashed puppet of Linda Sarsour.
What really is the absurdity is this Kaepernick is kneeling against the flag that gives him the right to peddle his expensive Nike’s merchandise to the people who can least afford it. And they are stupid enough to buy it. . . or steal it.
If he shows up I sure hope the USSS scans his hair for an afro-pick.
She’s an idiot.
“Colin Kaepernick’s girlfriend shocked the world on August 3 when she posted a tweet that appeared to compare Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti to a slave owner. The tweet came after rumors emerged that Ravens coach John Harbough and General Manager Ozzie Newsome were keen on a deal that would bring Kaepernick to Baltimore. That deal was apparently nixed by team owner Steve Bisciotti.”
“Nessa was raised a Muslim by her Egyptian father and Middle Eastern mother. She has two brothers. When writing about the controversial shooting of Alton Sterling in July 2016, Nessa said that her educated parents were refused jobs “because they have an accent.”
Alton Sterling was a convicted felony child abuser and drug dealer who was shot going for a gun when he was being questioned by cops. Both Feds and State refused to prosecute the cops.
WTH does that have to do with her parents?
Darn you for being so diplomatic. :-)
Colin knows he’s an idiot, and he knows if he has a dialogue with Trump he will be exposedas an idiot. He will never acceptthe invitation.
Come to Jesus Colin.
Bend the knee, and ask forgiveness.
