people who say sport and politics don& #39;t mix are mad
sport, as an arena in which Black people are majorly over-represented, should be more political imo
imagine if Black footballers all had something collectively to say about Windrush? No, that& #39;s asking too much. Imagine if just one of them had something to say. No, that& #39;s asking to much as well
obviously, there is an inherent unfairness in feeling obliged to participate in such things based on your racial identity and I feel that, even as a creative. But that doesn& #39;t change the fact that when it& #39;s done, it can be very effective
btw don& #39;t go blaming famous Black people for the problems that are inflicted on us. they don& #39;t HAVE to do or say thing. that& #39;s not what this thread is about. I am just of the opinion that having a platform and being informed can be a good thing
