Kanye West, Jim Brown and Ray Lewis Meet With Donald Trump

Tuesday morning, Kanye West had all of social media in a frenzy when he took a trip to Trump Tower in New York City for a meeting with president-elect Donald Trump. Per Yeezy, the meeting was about potentially becoming an “ambassador of sorts” for Trump.

But Kanye wasn’t the only one to slide through Trump towers, NFL legend Jim Brown and current NFL network analyst Ray Lewis were on the guest list too.

Ray Lewis was escorted in by former “Apprentice” castmate, Omarosa Manigualt. Lewis said he believed there could be change through the Trump administration

Lewis told reporters Trump is committed to “helping us change what hasn’t been changed.” He praised Jim Brown’s Amer-I-Can program and said he supports Trump’s pick to lead the Department of Housing and Urban Development, Ben Carson.

“What we believe, with the Trump administration, is if we can combine these two powers of coming together, forget black and white. Black or white is irrelevant,” he said.

“The bottom line is job creation and economic development in these urban areas to change the whole scheme of what our kids see.”
