Progessive change

We are one week into the annual celebration of Black History and African Heritage Month, so I would like to share a couple of pieces I came across recently (courtesy of YouTuber CB4TW of Raptors Recap).

The first one is Basketball Hall of Famer, Alex English reflecting on Martin Luther King Jr, his experiences growing up during the Civil Rights movement in Columbia, SC, and on President Barack Obama: (***During this video Alex re-counts a personal experience and uses a racial epithet - viewer discretion is advised***)



And next is Raptors NBA TV and Raptors radio broadcast announcer, Paul Jones sharing his thoughts on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and President Barack Obama:



I'm gonna leave you with a fun one (courtesy of Heat Daily), unfortunately it never aired due to T-Moblie recently cutting ties with Charles Barkley because of his holiday indiscretions...



Until next time y'all!
