We’ve only ever seen NBA players boycott a game ONCE. It was an exhibition game in 1961 and Bill Russell with a handful of other Celtics sat out in protest of racial injustice.. the fact we are still doing this 50 years later for the SAME THING should be incredibly telling.

Sad to have to even say this but Bubba remains a victim in this. He didn’t find, report or announce the news of noose. NASCAR did. And if you’re delighting in this because it WASN’T a hate crime.. think about what that says about you. Relief is the proper response not smugness

Just thinking about all the black folks today who are gonna go grocery shopping, to church, to a restaurant.. and map an exit strategy for how to get out of there— just in case. This is called trauma. Born of racism. And it’s terrifying. And no twitter condolences will 🛑 it.
