Miami Reporter Rips Kaepernick Over Praise for Castro During Conference Call

‘Are you equating the breaking up of Cuban families with people going to the jail in the United States of America?’

REPORTER: "Are you a believer in Fidel Castro? He was on that shirt." [crosstalk]
KAEPERNICK: "One thing that Fidel Castro did do is they have the highest literacy rate because they invest more in their education system than we do in their prison system, which we do not do here even though we're fully capable of duing that." 
REPORTER: "He also did something that we do not do here, broke up families. He took over a country without any, you know, justice, and without any elections." 
KAEPERNICK: "Uh, we do break up families here. That’s what mass incarceration is." 
REPORTER: "Are you equating the breaking up of Cuban families with people going to jail in the United States of America?"
