11:08 pm
injustice in f.l. previously banned players from kneeling during the country's national anthem past practice was started by collins happening and 2016 in protest against police brutality towards black americans top next move spock to backlash from some fans and team known as. well for more on this story i'm joined by press enter from the votes chris. how has this come about well right now even obviously according to all the news reports the death of george floyd has stoked the fire of social injustice and you know it's not leaving any stone uncovered and i think you know basically the n.f.l. made this move because the day prior a lot of n.f.l. star players you know released a video on social media together speaking about the social injustice and you know what they did is they started naming the names of
11:09 pm
a few of the lives lost i believe we have a video that we should be able to see and take a look at what the n.f.l. players got together to do the work our stories would you not want to say hi and a lot over. to me or right you. might . not be silent. pretty powerful stuff that pres how significant a u.-turn is this for the n.f.l. well you know for roger goodell the n.f.l. commissioner to come out and basically say we were wrong we basically see you now it's exactly what the world needs to see especially when you factor it 70 percent of the n.f.l. is african-american you know but it begs the question you know why did they mess up on carbon capture nick will he be invited back to the league. he have an opportunity to resume his career he did have an opportunity before you know this
11:10 pm
george floyd incident occurred it didn't work out that well but now a lot of people have come out you know saying they were wrong one general manager said something i found very strong powerful he said this is not a black problem this is a white problem this is an issue that we have to talk about we can no longer sugarcoat it we can't go back into our bubble you know so i think as long as that's a sentiment we understand this is a human issue a human rights issue i think you know everyone will be on the same page and we can get over this you know obstacle that's plagued us for so long everyone being on the same page not quite sure about that what kind of what kind of reactions did this u. turn get well president trump you know back when this initially happened back in 201617 trump known for his apprentice show you're fired he was really you know loud about firing people and so forth who refused to stand during the anthem and he doubled down recently on social media i believe we have his tweet if we can take a look at that. i believe he reiterate you can just look at the all caps no neatly
11:11 pm
and the interesting thing about that is one player named drew brees an n.f.l. quarterback responded to that tweet in said no president we were wrong we have to start paying attention to the plight of african-americans in this country and not only in the united states but around the world so obviously certain things you can't correct and certain messages won't change but as long as that power of the community is there change will occur a believe you have to mystery about that yet least right now i think the tipping point in it as long as anough people stay tuned to this issue is they focused on solving the issue and like the ones for the n.f.l. spoke that our white brothers and sisters out there need to do the same i think that we can unify and i get past this and from did abuse boards thank you very much for this analysis because. some german football news now and the bonus league
