In America, Nike stands with Black Lives Matter. Nike stands with the Latino community. Nike stands with no Asian hate and the LGBTQ community, but when it comes to China, Nike remains silent. And I feel like what they are doing over there is a modern-day slavery, and people need to understand this. Nike is the biggest hypocrite company, to me, in the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kanter went on to say James \u201ccares about his PR more than anything,\u201d and then shifted to saying Jordan, whose Air Jordan brand is owned by Nike, \u201ccares too much about his shoe sales\u201d to do anything for the black community.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNot many people are talking about Michael Jordan,\u201d he added. \u201cMichael Jordan hasn\u2019t done anything, nothing, for the black community in America besides just, you know, giving them money. I feel like we need to call out these athletes. At least LeBron James is going out there and, you know, being the voice of all those people who are oppressed in America. But Michael Jordan has not done anything for the black community because he cares too much about his shoe sales all over the world and America, so I feel like we need to call out these athletes and not be scared of who they are.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>Follow Trent Baker&nbsp;on Twitter&nbsp;<a class=\"x5l\" href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/MagnifiTrent\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener external\">@MagnifiTrent<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sunday on \u201cCNN Newsroom,\u201d Boston Celtics center Enes Kanter continued to rail against Nike and NBA stars for putting \u201cmoney over morals.\u201d After saying the massive clothing brand engaged in &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":23,"featured_media":2315279,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1044561","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1044561","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/23"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1044561"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1044561\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2315279"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1044561"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1044561"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1044561"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
