San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick reportedly engaged Wednesday in a “heated” discussion about Fidel Castro with a Miami Herald reporter from a family of Cuban exiles.
Kaepernick in August appeared at a press conference wearing a T-shirt that captured Castro, the Cuban leader, meeting with Malcolm X during a meeting that took place in 1960. The shirt read, “Like minds think alike.”
When asked on a conference call with Miami-area media about wearing a shirt that showed Castro, Kaepernick pointed out that Malcolm X was also pictured, according to a report in the Palm Beach Post.
