CAI Knights Basketball PG @CAI_PostGrad

We ended our first season with 5 post grad players & our focus was finding the right program for each of them. We are thrilled to announce that all 5 will be playing in college this season. @jermainephill2 @Beril_Kab @Gilbert_Jean4 @_Amcm4_ @fonzofranklin #freeeducation

LeBron and the vote:

LeBron James @KingJames

Everyone talking about “how do we fix this?” They say “go out and vote?” What about asking if how we vote is also structurally racist?

Laura Barrón-López @lbarronlopez

Took @MsLaToshaBrown 3hrs to vote today in GA. Then Brown drove over to predominantly white polling site in Atl suburbs “I come over to this side of town, and white folks are strolling in. On my side of town, we brought stadium chairs.” https://t.co/lhIAaHrAlC W/@ZachMontellaro

Time for white people to speak up:

T.J. @TJ_WINNING

White allies: It’s time to risk social status. Risking friends and relationships. Its time to talk to your families. It’s time to speak up. It’s time to make your communities uncomfortable. It’s time for America to understand the burden that black people carry every, single day.

Patrick Mahomes:

Jason Reid @JReidESPN

An NFL executive on the phone with me Sunday: “Let’s put it this way: The second I saw him in that video, I knew Roger had to act quickly. Everyone, including all the owners, knows he’s the guy.”

Stephen Jackson:

TODAY @TODAYshow

“I haven’t been the same since I’ve seen it.” Watch @craigmelvin’s full interview with Stephen Jackson, a former NBA player and lifelong friend of George Floyd, who died while in Minneapolis police custody.

Jarod shrug:

Adena Jones @adena_andrews

Talking about slavery makes you uncomfortable. Oh well. @jshector hit em with the shoulder shrug and screw face. Energy on @TrueHoop! 🤷🏾‍♂️ truehoop.com/p/bring-it-in-…

Why did it take so long?:

It's Going Down @IGD_News

10 years from now, people won't look back and ask: "Why did it explode in 2020?" Massive unemployment while the rich rake in billions from tax-cuts + bailouts, the earth on the brink of collapse + police murdering people daily. Instead they'll ask: "Why didn't it happen sooner?"

Make racists afraid again:

Matt Powell @NPDMattPowell

Three generations:

Amol Rajan @amolrajan

This is one of the most amazing clips you will ever see, capturing perfectly the lifelong anguish of some many Americans who happen to black, and want merely the dignity and peace their compatriots take for granted. Please watch - and learn

Henry: Jane McManus

Jane McManus @janesports

Sports are the result of a functioning society, not the precursor. If you like sports so much, you should be pushing for a better response to the virus, not the de facto ritual sacrifice of some number of pro athletes and their kin.

Henry: THIS WAS MARCH 31

Henry Abbott @TrueHoop
