Sept. 2016: Lil Wayne said he had “no opinion” on Colin Kaepernick kneeling during the national anthem.

“...The Black lives matter thing... that whole wave of whatever, that whole wave just went by me too fast for me to even try to even give an opinion.”
Lil Wayne told Skip Bayless, who asked him about racism, “I thought [racism] was over. I still believe it’s over, but, obviously, it isn’t.”
Shannon Sharpe tried to bail Lil Wayne out by reminding him of Alton Sterling and racial injustice during Katrina. Lil Wayne responded that maybe “coming together is the solution” and said his family is his “politics,” his “protest,” and “all that matters” to him.
Lil Wayne once said that white kids loving rap music “was clearly a message that there was no such thing as racism.”
