but it's not going to be done only by the nfl.a lot of different entities to get that done. and then when it comes to colin kaepernick, you know, he's a guy that's been away from the league now for three years. and i think there were teams that have offered him an opportunity to play, but they also wanted him to give them the word that he was going to stop his kneeling. and when it comes to kneeling and protesting, the reason you protest is to make change and try and get people to make change. well, i think that change is starting to happen. so there really isn't a need for the kneeling to happen when you start to get people to make positive change for what you were protesting in the first place. >> but, warren, can you see how some supporters of kaepernick might see him as having been left behind? you've got these two titans, jay-z and the nfl which might be the only entity with more money than jay-z, teaming up. and you've still got kaepernick literally and figuratively on the sidelines. >> i'm that. but like i said, a lot of te

also coming up in the programme... 99 problems, but the nfl 81, as jay-z 99 problems, but the nfl 81,jay—z comes on board to the super bowl. —— to revive the super bowl. hello, and welcome along. a former tottenham hotspur footballer, who was the victim of racist abuse during a women's championship match injanuary of this year, has told the bbc she has no regrets in reporting it despite "sinking into depression" as a result of online abuse. the football association found that renee hector was racially abused by sheffield united's sophiejones who was then banned for five games despite her denials. 0ur sports correspondent katie gornall spoke exclusively to hector and joins us now. what did she tell you, katie? she said she had no regrets. she felt it was important to take a stand about this, but it is clear that the whole incident and aftermath of it has really taken a toll on her, because there was a lot of attention around this when the news emerged. there hadn't been an incident like this reported in women's football before. it all dates back to a game injanuary when spurs, who were

other artists being a part of the nfl.ey, this is a money play and a music play. then the social activism came later. this is like hey this is what we are going to do. he was on the forefront of telling the nfl no. we don't need you. you need us. now he is saying i am going to join forces. i really hope he means what he says by saying the protests started outside. now we are inside. we are talking to the heads of the heads. we need to make change. i am here to do that. i hope it is not just a music play. >> he said we are past moving. is that where we really are. >> when he said we are past kneeling. no. i don't think the nfl has done enough to move past it. signing jay-z and rocnation does not alleviate all of the things they have not addressed as an organization. >> jemele, you pointed this out on twitter saying robert kraft is a big supporter of president trump. is the nfl using jay-z to shield themselves? >> yeah. use is such a tough word. we are talking about one of the shrewdest businessmen we have seen. hip-hop's fi

supporters of now infamous nfl kneeler kaepernick.laim that jay-z is making a deal with the devil, they point on past comments with jay-z's. jay-z's. eric reed said, jay-z claimed to be a supporter of colin, wore his jersey, told people to not perform at super bowl, now he will be a part owner, he is sounding despicable. and reed sounding jealous. and i feel like he discredited colin and myself and the work that is being done, i'm trying, i'm going to try to give this man the benefit of doubt for now, it is not something that i agree with, not something they respect. nfl commissioner goodell probably thought the opposite of this would happen. after all league has been trying its best to get controversy . because after all, it is capitalism, something that jay-z is very good at. so let's get into it with tonight's panel. former congressional press secretary. rachelle ritchie here with head writer of this find program, luckiest man in the world, jimmy faella and tyler grant. >> so. i have to side with jay-z here. he is saying you know w

i think that is the last thing on the minds of nfl fans.-- the nfl -- need to embrace jay-z's vision of social justice bid this is a guy who stole drugs, stabbed his brother in the face, but still this partnership is being billed as a way to unify america. as memory serves, jay-z had a hard time you're flying with his sister-in-law, solange knowles. >> as soon as the doors closed, beyonce's to start with her attention jay-z, seemingly shouting at him, punching and kicking him, and finally smacking him with her purse. >> raymond: okay >> jesse: okay, this is my first raymond arroyo segment, but a loss for words. i would say this, raymond. it seems like big organizations like the nfl, or like nike is doing with kaepernick, they are bringing on the social justice liaisons to help them navigate through tender issues, racial issues, things like that, that might give these big organizations problems, and if you bring a guy with street cred, ears to the street, great credibility in the black community, that can kind of cushion any sort of negative

fans while inspiring some of the nfl players. to channel the player protest over what they described as police brutality, on this night of all nights, the nfl committed $89 million to something called "inspire change," that is their social justice program. today, roger goodell appeared with the man headlining that effort for the nfl, jay-z. >> this partnership, in addition to the entertainment aspect and bringing football and music together, is going to help us make even greater change. we call it protest progress because we need to make progress with communities. >> just having a place where we can have these conversations, things are going wrong in the country, you know, people are dying in these neighborhoods okay, where do we go, again everyone, it's a natural emotion to be upset, but where do we go now? what are we going to do? how do we fix it? >> raymond: the idea here jesse, is to use music and social activism to change society. jay-z, during the presser, identified police brutality as the target of their efforts. now thi

it gives you an idea where the nfl is today.in terms of political stripes. trish: when you think about the economic disadvantaging that the community has, you know, if you are a poor african-american kid born into east harlem, you don't have the same opportunities, you just don't as a kid in white suburbia. but in some ways -- i'm not saying racism doesn't still exist, it does. but it's not entirely race. it also seems to be socioeconomic. what are the policies we should be pursuing, and how is the nfl or democrats who want to keep people subservient or dependents. how are they putting your communities at a disadvantage. >> how about some truth. at the end of the day it's not white policies. it's not black policies, it's american policies. what president trump has in place is a 10-point new deal for suburban america. each part of that process comes simply, education, industry, god or service and the family unit. those are the things that made our country great. those are the things that the democratic party continued to undermin

you look at jay—z and wonder why he would want to get involved with the nfl?the other hand, jay—z is a pragmatic businessman. he has said you will do business with people that you don't always agree with, and he's going to get his ex book on the super bowl shows. the nfl probably would've preferred last year to maroon five, acts like rihanna or pink. folks like jay—z have said they would not do the half—time show because of the kaerpernick thing. you mentioned collin kaerpernick, and i suppose thatis collin kaerpernick, and i suppose that is the big question around this, because the cfl has been so divided as to where it sits on this particular and everything that colin kaerpernick stands for. does this signal any likelihood of a return to the sport for him, or a mellowing of relations? i think the most important thing that happened with him recently — twofold, one he did a video showing that he still works out and is ready to play and can play. and two, more importantly, donald trump made a comment about him the other day that was a moderate comment, after al
