Watch: Michael Bennett challenges America to 'treat people better'

Seattle Seahawks stars Michael Bennett and Doug Baldwin joined CNN's Anderson Cooper on Wednesday night to discuss the recent protests by NFL players along with the comments made by Donald Trump directed at players.

As one might expect from the social activist, Bennett made some inspiring comments.

"I'd like to challenge every American that is watching this show to treat people better. That's really what it's about," said Bennett. "There's no way that a woman should feel less human than a man. There's no way that a black person should feel less human than a white man."

Bennett and Baldwin were two of several former and current NFL players, including Philadelphia Eagles safety Malcolm Jenkins, to join the program and help educate the public on what players are protesting.
