Even a third world country isn't immune to know when they about to lose a lot of money... and a shytload of white pride... And in this case from football games. When that star athlete at that SEC Mississippi school said fk it I ain't playing until that flag change... Them rednecks had to think about some serious ass whuppin' coming if more star black players refused to play also... I think they have a HBCU on their schedule this year... Imagine them muthafkers getting beat by 40 by a HBCU...Them rednecks would be hanging themselves left and right.

But with this covid-19 these black athletes have the leverage to boycott because they still win if they don't play by a better % of avoiding that shyt. They need to press for more changes especially in that racist ass state.

Good for that young brother that stood up and won a major system change.

it only took decades in a state that's over 35% black

All that talk of heritage and history just evaporated. It left faster than it came.

Nice gesture however, none of this matters until they fix the systemic racism with their institutions.

They act like people don’t have a shopping list of the problems in this country.

Great for whom? Was a question asked by a lot of the people I know.

And they said protests wouldn’t do anything. Like white folks are just going to have changes of heart on their own

I’m sure those officials are in a racially specific district. Their constituents are ardent supporters of state rights and the confederate’s heritage.

This change happened cause of one reason and thats money, oops i meant to say NCAA football and basketball. 2 power 5 schools and revenue from March Madness venues was the key. Just like Arizona with the Super Bowl, they quickly changed their stance for a MLK Day off.

They keep saying keep politics out of sports, they go hand in hand. Same reason black football players dont understand the control they have when they could of backed Kaep. Not saying they needed to kneel but they saw how he was blackballed. No one wants to watch an all white football team.
