When the NBA players strike, it leads to Owners (with powerful connections in politics) making 0 dollars from the team. Which then forces owners to make calls to those powerful connections to finally make real, tangible actions that will hopefully change the system of police training and funding.

This isn't about you, this isn't about the fans, none of that matters. It is ONLY about equality. That's it. There is no "I'm all for equality but.." in this scenario.

I get it's hard to connect to these situations sometimes especially if you're not black or a person of colour, but please if you find yourself always fighting or arguing what the black community is doing, really take yourself out of the equation and listen. Listen to what people in the communities are saying and not put your own bull**** into the issues.
