MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. -- San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick said Sunday he believes his comments about former Cuban dictator Fidel Castro to South Florida media last week were taken out of context.
"What I said was I agree with the investment in education," Kaepernick said. "I also agree with the investment in free universal healthcare as well as the involvement in him helping end apartheid in South Africa. I would hope that everybody agrees those things are good things. And trying to push the false narrative that I was a supporter of the oppressive things that he did is just not true.
