Why Jenifer Lewis Wore Nike On The Red Carpet

Description

"Black-ish" actress Jenifer Lewis wore a red and black Nike shirt on the Emmys red carpet Monday night. Lewis says it was meant as a message of support for Nike's decision to promote Colin Kaepernick. "I speak to the millennials tonight to tell them they are not alone in standing up," the 61-year-old actress said. "We're right behind them. Their ancestors are behind them, who took two knees and two hands picking cotton." CNN reports Lewis as saying she'd thought hard about her wardrobe choice. Earlier this month Nike unveiled an ad campaign featuring Kaepernick.
