  1. Where is our historians who’s going to set the record straight where we gonna get the right information from that’s what Black people want

  2. Why does need to apologize when he’s only paraphrasing someone else’s statement. Why isn’t Amazon and Jeff Bezos, forced to apologize for put out this documentary.This just goes to show the hypocrisy within America

  3. I know Kyrie is a phenomenal talent!
    However, as a Nets Fan, I want him gone. He doesn't really care about basketball. He's threatened retirement in the past and he just always needs to have a "hey, look at me" moment.
    I'm tired of him. Because with alllllll that talent, he's given us nothing but headaches.

  4. To me I still don't understand what the issue is. The book/film is available on Amazon. Why is it not being pulled off Amazon if it is so hateful. Why is no one cancelling Amazon… At this point just cut Kyrie if that's big of an issue.

  5. What about his Post was Anti-Semitic Wildes? Of course a culture built to oppress his lineage, would be in conflict, wouldn't it? How can he be Anti-Semitic, if he is of Semitic ancestry also? Abraham, Isaac, Ismael, Esau, and Jacob, are all descendants of Shem, so by definition, they are all Semitic, correct? Therefore, by attacking Kyrie, and his lineage, the people attacking him, and oppressing him, aren't they being Anti-Semitic? First, one should breakdown the lie, if you are a sincere reporter of the Truth, agreed?

  6. Yes, great idea. Let's just cancel him because he has a different viewpoint. Rather engage with him as an equal. Use it as a teaching moment. Whoever is pushing this narrative is an evil genius. Let's have the black man appear to be at odds with the Jewish community. If kyrie thinks like this because of what he has absorbed in his journey, you can bet your house that there are millions of people that think like this (and much worse). So why don't we use these flashpoints to try and respectfully educate each other and reach common ground.

  7. "I'm sorry, that I've finally felt enough pressure to say sorry for something I'm clearly not sorry for… But I'm glad everyone's now happy!"

  8. This is a person that believes the earth is flat. Goodluck asking kyrie about historical facts.

  9. Yeah I think they need a public apology not no Instagram post not everyone uses insta but everyone watches TV

  10. I'm for k.I. y'all just doing this for T.V. y'all get paid to lie and make little things a big deal all y'all some sale out skip and his new girlfriend Shannon Horse face 🐴 the fake people in world smh sad to see 👀

  11. why is the documentary on amazon? Why amazon isn’t fined? are people who created it fined? unanswered questions

  12. Brett Farve,Robert Sarver,Robert Kraft….no indignation when comes to them for yrs…No company ties cut ….Why???

  13. Kyrie is a human 1st and a tax paying American who has every right to share his opinions! You all know the biggest lie being told now that the negroes aren't the descendants of the Hebrews! Kyrie is speaking alot of truth. At the end of the day, no apology is needed. Who apologies for all wrong that blacks face?
