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.
