The National Football League said on Thursday it would commit $250 million over the next 10 years to fight systematic racism against black people in the United States.
“The NFL is growing our social justice efforts through a 10-year total $250 million fund to combat systemic racism and support the battle against the ongoing and historic injustices faced by African-Americans,” the league said. The commitment tops the nearly $90 million the NFL pledged in 2017 over seven years to social justice causes. That plan was the result of negotiations between NFL owners and the players following Colin Kaepernick-led national anthem protests during the 2016 and 2017 seasons.
“It would be awesome to engage Colin on some of the work we are doing,” an unidentified official said. “He’s doing real impactful work. Getting him in some way would be amazing for us. There’s a lot of work to do to get to that point. We’re certainly open and willing to do that.”
This is ludicrous. These people have lost their minds. Is he going to make the “white fans” take a knee, apologize for their white privilage, and kiss the black player’s shoes before entering their holy shrines? Who is going to pay for that treatment Roger? Tell the truth!
