The above bolded words are completely wrong. He has donated very generously to numerous organizations that do everything from helping the homeless, to education, after school programs, and on and on. The list is too numerous to write here. http://kaepernick7.com/million-dollar-pledge/
You can dislike him if you want. But, the active disdain for him in the media has far more to do with what others are saying about him (I would say for political expediency), and little to do with his own words, or actions. I think if more people actually knew the real story, he would not be so very controversial. If nothing else, he has very actively, and thoroughly put his money where his mouth is.
