NBPA President Chris Paul had said earlier in the season restart at Walt Disney World that $300 million would be the start, and now those plans are complete.
The league said the charity would be public and that the foundation would work to deepen “the NBA family’s commitment to racial equality and social justice.” Those missions have been front-and-center at the restart at Walt Disney World, where games are played on courts with “Black Lives Matter” painted on them and about 85 percent of players are choosing to have a social justice message on their jerseys for the remainder of the season.
Wonder how much corruption? Pure feel good BS
NEVER REALLY cared for the game anyway.
Don't watch
Yes, not only that, it's important all kinds of supports go to African American community starting from social, financial, psychological for at least next 100 years before we can think about bridging racial inequality and wealth gap! It's about time! BlackLivesMatter
DemocracyDC Not nearly enough.
All professional sports should be defunded and their assets given to the poor. Sports should returned to the sandlots and to the children they were created for. To be played just for the fun of it without the smothering presence of adults and money changers.
How about NBA and NIKE raise fists and $M for freedom for Hong Kong and social justice for slavish Chinese workers getting paid 1/hr to make $1000 sneakers for rich privileged players like LeBron? Freedom matters! So do Yellow Lives! Shame!
No one cares Free Hong Kong NBA and all the players can suck an egg
I think JoeBiden was trying to say that with Latinos in the U.S. there is a multi-cultural diversity as they don't just come from Mexico. Where we don't know the actual cultural regions of Africa, when it comes to African-Americans as their ancestors were forced here in bondage.
To funnel more African-Americans through the sports franchise? Keeping them away from sustained opportunities that last generations?
3...2...1..... cue conservatives heads exploding all over the country. Also all the comments about how they’ll never watch a sport they don’t watch anyway.
Did they ask for chinas permission though?
I think the NBA should increase that amount by 10 times... lets call it reparations for years they did nothing but promote thuggish behavior
Is China ok with that!?!?!
Take a knee take a hike.
This is wonderful! the right thing for these privileged athletes to do!! Kneeling is wrong
Racism
Billionaire owners will not continue to float a league hemorrhaging 10s of $millions. NBA will be gone this time next year.
Moto in bold letters....”when the law catches up to you, take a knee”
Cause it's way easier to help the minority, not the majority. Got it.
As long as that's okay with the Chinese Communist Party
There’s poor people of all races. But y’all gonna single out only one to do this for? Hmm, isn’t this by definition racism? 🤔
The “woke” NBA won’t have any money to run these programs when no money is coming in. They depend solely on TV rights deals (which are plummeting) and merchandise. NBA is about to learn the hard way that Socialism destroys.
But no new 100% Black owned NFL football teams or NBA teams. Getting tired of chicken shit blacks blaming white people no richer than they are while too cowardly to take rich white league owners to task for locking out wealthy blacks from ownership. Man up and stop whining!
Just help all Americans by gutting the Democrat strongholds, the demonic welfare plantations they have set up have been gaming blacks for decades & we can see the results. Democrats! Leave Blacks & all other Americans Alone!
NBA ratings 📉
There’s always a catch...ask Akron about Lebrons school(2million) he helped build it,but 8 million dollars tax payers paid also in yearly taxes.
If you just vote out democrats we can get employment back to where it was. Trumps opportunity zones where he allowed state and local govt to designate low interest loans has help many minority businesses grow.
Work to create more black owners in NBA and NFL instead of blaming the white middle class for racism of white and a Jewish owners. Plenty of blacks wealthy enough to afford an NFL football team, guys. Cut the horseshit!
If they want more growth in black communities then let some of the black millionaires share the wealth.
NBA watching more of its viewers departing in droves.
When will they change the league’s name to Marxist’s Basketball Association?
They could afford much more than that, especially over a decade.. and for how much talking they do, you’d think they step up to the plate a lil more
This is not noble or philanthropic. Media refuses to enlighten the public on where this money actually goes. This is 100% political, and the public is fed up with these dishonest narratives.
BLACK LIES MATTER
Day players...
Nice!
Considering that's where their players and fans come from it makes sense.
They make billions a year and donate 30 millions?
Define growth? 🤷♂️
In 2019 cops killed 1004 people. 370 whites, 235 blacks, 158 Hispanic, 39 other, 202 unknown. 375,000,000 police interactions annually & only a 1000 killed. White Lives Matter is not concerned, We LOVE LE, don’t care if White criminals get shot by police, they knew better.
Waste of money, Dems don’t want hoods eradicated, too many votes. And you can throw money at anything, but the rest of the equation matters more. Just cause you black has nothing to do with Bidness acumen. 300M is $1 for every citizen, 10 cents a year over decade, no real gain
The NBA that shut down so quick and went dark after realizing their players brought back C19 from China? Ya know, dozens of players all over China pimping $1B deal! Whoring it up , partying , no Jimmie on the jammie, that NBA?
Just remember this also 👀
In The Black Community? What Black Community / Where Or Is It Black Communities?🙄
The hypocrisy is stunning...
Anyone kneeling to God ..for all destruction around the globe ..hurricanes ..floods.. ...explosionect...
Where will be the money coming from? From the black community themselves?
But will they condone China?
Hooray Marxism!!
I wonder who gets to ask deadbeat donald, the coward, for a donation.
Why?
I will believe it when I see it.
Peanuts
👏
