Empty talk won't save organizations either.
The NFL is trying to pivot away from its long-standing prohibitions against players expressing opposition to racism and police violence, a policy symbolized by blackballing Colin Kaepernick. "We, the National Football League, admit we were wrong for not listening to NFL players earlier and encourage all to speak out and peacefully protest," commissioner Roger Goodell said.
Goodell's statement "has rightfully been met with skepticism from the masses," Vincent Frank wrote at Forbes. "But if [Colin] Kaepernick remains unemployed once the 2020 NFL season starts in September, it will have been proven that Goodell's words were nothing more than an attempt to appease the masses through a well thought out PR stunt."
Biden, Harris and the NFL need to atone for their sins. We don't want their words. We need action.
