To stand up is to embrace. If one cannot embrace the words, how can one stand up? We must live our ideals not merely speak them. @lv_teacher

What's so absolutely fascinating about your tweet here Matt is that I actually do not know which man it is to whom you refer!

How I wish. But this is is the U.S. He hasn't been shot in the street in cold blood, attacked on the field or made dead. Yet.

Not obviously, I'm sad to say. A 6 year old child killed by a 14 year old is hardly news nowadays. TRAGIC VIOLENCE EVERY DAY.

I'd love to have you visit #Tucson @mattrobin140s. We'll visit the boneyards and walk the paths here of human oppression and mass slaughter.

No @mattrobin140s - I am perfectly aware of the risk of living in an undeclared civil war where people are armed with automatic weapons.

I think the term you're looking for is "everywhere the white man walked."

You're very deeply experienced in the sociology of sport @lv_teacher I acknowledge your dedication and thank you kindly for the perspective!
