Like someone on Roland Martin's show said. Y'all tell us how you want us to show up. Tell us how you want us to protest. I promise you we will show up in whatever way you want, if you will listen. That's not the problem. The problem is you don't want black people to speak up or protest. PERIOD! It doesn't matter the way it is presented. You just don't want to hear it.

If Kap sits on the bench or kneels its a problem
Lebron James speaks out, shut up and dribble
NBA players take a stand and boycott games - The league is too political
BLM protests - violent radical antifa leftists coming for your suburbs
Peaceful protest- get billed
