This is what happens when any segment of society awakens to the power we have to create a change. Professional athletes doing things like this is potentially huge.

The NBA, owners and front offices didn't see this wave of player boycotts coming today. Hours ago, they all expected to be playing these games tonight. This is a pivot point for the NBA and professional sports in North America.

Yes ... people everywhere are beginning to wake up ... and if you had your head in the sand ... and missed the last shooting of an unarmed black man ... just wait ... because another one will die again soon ... real soon ... and perhaps you'll be awake then!

Dissent has jumped from the streets to sports arenas. Given what happened to @Kaepernick7 & @MahmoudAbdulRau, we’re grateful that sports leagues have grown more welcoming to dissent. It’s been a long time coming!

I wonder what would happen with no pro sports? How could life go on? Seem to remember we did that recently. Athletes joining teachers as people over-playing their hand.

solidarity that demonstrates to us the ultimate reality that we are all connected feels like a good pathway out of this darkness
