Jenifer Lewis was the star of the 2018 Emmy’s because she opted to wear Nike in honor of Colin Kaepernick.
“I am wearing Nike to applaud them for supporting Colin Kaepernick and his protest against racial injustice and police brutality,” the Black-ish star told Variety during her red-carpet interview before the ceremony.
She explained her motivation behind wearing the brand to an awards show filled with glamorous designer gowns, asking herself …
“What can I do? What can I do that’s meaningful? I’ll wear Nike. I’ll wear Nike to say thank you. Thank you for leading the resistance! We need more corporate America to stand up also.”
