The Detroit Lions have a star in wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown. In four seasons he has accumulated more than 4,800 receiving yards and 33 touchdowns. His presence on the field has certainly become a focus point of the offense.
However, it’s what happened off-the-field that has fans outraged.
“If A White Person Said This” Lions’ Amon-Ra St. Brown Sees Racist Video Leak, Fans Outraged
St. Brown’s father, John Brown, forbids his sons from having children with white women, regardless of the fact that he did not practice what he’s preaching:
His excuse is he adulterated the genetics at a point where it wouldn’t matter, but his sons cannot afford to further “cut” it.
Brown, a two-time Mr. Universe, has three sons, two of whom are in the NFL, while the other also played Division I football.
The bodybuilder recently joined his sons on Amon-Ra’s ‘The St. Brown Podcast,’ where he urged them to stick to their kind if they want athletes.
Below is the full video:
Wow: Amon-Ra St. Brown’s father, John, says the key to raising professional athletes is having kids with a BLACK woman and not mating with a white woman.
“I’m black, mom is white, Now I’ve done stepped on it once. You can’t keep stepping on it.”

Brown’s take on the matter pointed towards genetics and raising future elite athletes. He did not criticize interracial relationships, having featured in one himself, but he did warn that his children cannot go his route if they want to continue the successful line of top-tier sportsmen.
Amon-Ra, as you know, is one of the highest-earning non-quarterbacks in the NFL. Drafted by the Detroit Lions in 2021, he’s a premier wideout who still boasts a very high ceiling. His brother, Equanimeous St. Brown, formerly of Notre Dame, was drafted by the Green Bay Packers in 2018 and last played for the Chicago Bears.
The third sibling, Osiris St. Brown, played at Stanford but did not make it into the NFL. He pivoted to business after problems with injuries.
John and his wife Miriam raised their three sons with strict discipline and put them through a challenging training regimen before they reached their 10th birthdays. They all got DI scholarships, and two made it to the pros.
The Lions receiver has been with Brooklyn Adams, believed to be White, since high school. They do not have any kids…

Fans weren’t too happy with this video:
But if a white man said this regarding IQ he’d be labeled as a racist

If a white person says this it’s racist. Now they want pure bloodlines. Maybe nothing is racist.

Imagine being like this and your son is half white and your wife is white. What a weirdo.
