This is an unofficial transcript meant for reference. Accuracy is not guaranteed.
Behind the wheel of a lincoln is a mighty fine place to start.
You do not say a word about
the oppression of minorities in
China.
You need to speak up.
Millions of Uyghurs are
currently detained, sold and
assigned to work at forced labor
camps, prisons across the
country,
Brian Boston, Celtics, Center
Enes Kanter, slamming the this
Ba and Nike the NBA and Nike
LEO Terrell. This takes guts
because he came out against
China and look at his shoes as
well as the treatment of Tibet.
This is big.
You know, Brian. I applaud e
necessary if canter, because hes
going to Enes Kanter because
hes going to take a financial
hit.
He is a true human rights
activist,
ten aside, Colin Kaepernick and
Lebron James, because hes
talking about China and the NBA
has been completely quiet.
Why?
Because of the money,
its easy Brian, for an NBA
player to criticize America,
they dont go to prison,
they can criticize America day
and night call us imperfect,
but when it comes to China, the
reason why you dont hear
Lebron James or the NBA is
because of this.
They dont want to lose this,
and I applaud e necessary if
Canter Enes Kanter, because
human rights injustices go
beyond borders
Brian. I know that his familys
under house arrest, basically in
Turkey,
if he came bark hed, be jailed
or killed because of what he
said about Erdogan.
So this guy has stood up
all right. The celtic games are
taken out of China.
Why has the league been so
quiet
ill? Tell you why? Because of
this
and Heres the thing about it,
Enes Kanter has a record of
being a human rights activist
Brian remember. Last year the
George Floyd case NBA stepped
up. They had black lives matter
on the floor,
put down, stop forced labor. On
the NBA floor,
the NBA is all about money.
Lebron James was critical of
Daryl mauerly because of his
criticism of China, but its all
about money,
its disingenuous for the NBA to
talk about human rights
injustices in this and in
this country, and not look
overseas and not talk about
China,
its all about money. You know
it and I know it.
Brian LEO. He called on
Lebron James to go visit a
prison camp.
Wow,
hey dont, hold your breath
Brian, because Lebron James
makes millions of these over
there
and ill. Tell you right now. If
he was really concerned about
human rights step up
talk today,
Brian yep
hold a press conference with
Enes Kanter, along with the NBA
and black lives matter.
All those groups who throw
America under the bus lets
focus on China. If you really
care about people being
victimized
Brian. This takes guts.
This bothers me.
This bothers me, because civil
rights does not stop at the
borders.
Brian absolutely,
and this takes gunpoints.
This is purely for the people
of gunpoints
guts.
All he does. Is it his own career
at risk, because hes really
good but hes, not a superstar.
They easily could decide that.
