Dear NFL: Follow MLB s lead and use Super Bowl LVII to combat Arizona s planned voter restriction laws Shalise Manza Young
Hey, NFL and NFL teams:
I know 2020 was kind of a blur for many of us, what with the COVID-induced sameness of day-to-day life, when a great number of us found ourselves suddenly thrust into a routine that meant not only working from home but also becoming teachers, tutors, tech supporters, and Zoomers. And to be honest, it took its toll.
But that doesn t mean we ve forgotten.
We haven t forgotten your solemn team statements after George Floyd s death at the hands of Minneapolis police, your sudden interest in Juneteenth and encouraging team employees to patronize a Black-owned business or read a book by a Black author, or your token gestures like painting End Racism on fields for a couple of weeks. We haven t forgotten commissioner Roger Goodell s video where he said We, the National Football League, condemn . the systematic oppression
