Kareem puts Jordan on blast over lack of political advocacy

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar does not shy from discussing his political advocacy. He also doesn't appear to have a problem speaking out against those who don't speak up.

Such was a subject of conversation during a recent interview on NPR, in which the NBA's all-time leading scorer voiced opposition to the political stance of former Chicago Bulls figurehead Michael Jordan.

According to The New York Daily News, the interview to promote the HBO documentary Kareem: Minority of One turned to Jordan and his refusal to back Democrat Harvey Gantt during a Senate run in the 1990s.
