Kaepernick, racism, Trump and the NFL | Nate Boyer and Lamar Louis

There have been protests, rallies, and political upheaval since the killing of George Floyd at the hands of a white police officer in Minneapolis last month.

Shane Hannon was joined by two men for a conversation around racism in the United States, the NFL reaction, and President Trump's response.

Nate Boyer is a former United States Army Green Beret and long snapper with the Seattle Seahawks. It was after his meeting with Colin Kaepernick that the latter decided to adopt the 'take the knee' protest as opposed to sitting away from his teammates.

Lamar Louis shared a locker room with Drew Brees - the former Arizona Cardinals, New Orleans Saints, Baltimore Ravens and Dallas Cowboys running back speaks here about the NFL's reaction to Floyd's killing.
