It’s sickening to see people boo’ing the moment of silence before the game! Would you boo a moment of silence for 9/11?

And then people have the audacity to say “this is our escape from the problems in the world, let us just enjoy the game”

For a lot of us , as soon as we step off that field we are BLACK men in a world that sees us as a threat.

There is no escape for us.. and it’s been that way since our grandparents and great grandparents were fighting front lines for this country and came home, not as a hero, but a BLACK man... Returning home to get spit on, beat in the streets, and discriminated against..

If we can’t escape , why should we put aside our feelings just to make fans feel comfortable in their “escape”? Why is it that fans can’t take one MOMENT of silence, but we have to live day to day in silence and in fear. They’ve been silencing us for so long.. not anymore.

Black, white , or indifferent we stand together. This is our platform as influencers to peacefully bring awareness and promote change in this world.

If you really can’t enjoy the game because of a moment of silence, then maybe you should be reading a book on the history of this country instead, so you understand why we stand together through this. Maybe you’ll understand or maybe you won’t but #EnoughisEnough #StopKillingUs
