I AGREE. SHUT THEM DOWN NOW! MSNBC’s Melissa Harris-Perry: NBA Is About ‘Profit From the Sale of Black Bodies.’
UPDATE: From the comments:
The typical NBA owner got rich before he bought an NBA team. He didn’t need the NBA to get rich. If the NBA never existed, he would still be rich.
The typical NBA player has no way to make anywhere near the money they’re making in the NBA other than the NBA. If the NBA never existed, “LeBron” at best would be a pretty good construction worker somewhere in northeast Ohio. Most of the rest of the players would be mediocre french fry jockeys.
Well, you can’t make a social justice omelet without breaking a few eggs. If abolishing the NFL and NBA would drastically shrink the number of black millionaires, so be it.
