he failed to declare revenue from his image rights three. sports giant nike is weighing in on a racially charged controversy in the united states young expat from the interview sports talk us through to the program yannick so nike is taking the knee yeah i guess. this is debate that's been going on for more than two years now colin kaepernick started protesting against racial injustice by kneeling during the national anthem before n.f.l. matches and it really divided the country donald trump even got in on the debate and came out against happening and so now coming out in support of company with this new advertising campaign is really a boost for the player as well say in this report not he's new campaign pulls no punches believe in something even if it means sacrificing everything that's exactly what colin kaepernick has done over the past two years after starting his
1:11 pm
protests in august twenty sixth jane company has not been offered a new contract by any n.f.l. club with. his decision to protest racial injustice specifically police brutality against african-americans cause division as fellow n.f.l. players joined the movement. u.s. president donald trump was among the most vociferous critics. when you love to see one of these n.f.l. owners when somebody disrespects our flag to say get that son of a bitch off the field right now out of the sky. fire. in may n.f.l. owners ratified opposed seawitch directed protesting players to remain in the locker room during the anthem or face punishment we want people to be respectful to national anthem we want people to stand that's our personnel and make sure that they treat this moment in
1:12 pm
a respectful fashion. that policy is yet to be implemented and the new nike campaign has now intensified the divisive issue nike and cap in the face of backlash on social media hashtags boycott nike and just burn it showed fans discarding nike products with just days before the start of the new season not he has added fire to an already fiery debate. so just a side note on the report to fill not he is one of the biggest sponsors of the n.f.l. so this is quite a significant move from them from the right timing joint so they need doesn't look like they are picking a side what what does this campaign then mean for coming on this movement at this time especially it's pretty big it's just days before the n.f.l. season starts but it's also days before or a short time before company troil against his lawsuit against the n.f.l. owners will come into place he's basically alleging that the n.f.l.
1:13 pm
owners occluding against him and in terms of not offering him any work in the n.f.l. because of his protests so for catholics to get nike support at this time it really is a huge new develop from him before it was him against the powers that be that was the n.f.l. and even the u.s. president no less and so. i have not keep a company worth somewhat i think thirty five billion dollars is a big deal for him it's the first time he's had a big hit really in his court so this is a divisive campaign potentially losing nike millions so why is it getting behind him well might no mistake i think not he will have weighed up the pros and the cons and made a business decision they must have i mean they are concerned about profits first and foremost so they must have realized that in the long run no matter what kind of boycott goes on they will turn a profit from this advertising campaign but that said no he does have a history of putting on similar campaigns when just after trump's inauguration they
1:14 pm
brought out a cape campaign called equality featuring the bron james the famous basketball and i feel that this campaign as well as the previous campaign was a bit of a middle finger up to donald trump i think it really kind of going at him a bit here and it is a rare move for a company like this to get away from being neutral and make a political statement about the games governing body than the n.f.l. where have they decided what to do about this take in the campaign not yet so as mentioned the port they the n.f.l. owners decided that they wanted the players who were protesting to stay in the locker room during the national anthem and if they did stand neil during the national anthem they would be punished that decision is going to hold on hold as a negation negotiations continue between the n.f.l. and the players association and they also face this lawsuit from company which is yet to be decided and so i think the n.f.l. are in a pretty dicey position they want want to lose not the sponsorship money which is
1:15 pm
means a lot to them but there are a lot of egos at stake here as well and i don't think they'll be wanting to take a step down but interesting are you an expat thank you. watching the dubliners live from baghdad coming up google turns twenty on b.m.w. five millions for emissions violations hello home fake well how about those stores on the rest of the day's business seems in just a moment i'll be back at the top they are. doing in fighting for the case taking seriously in the world of what here's what's coming up women strong.
