When any white man in the world says "Give me liberty or give me death", the entire white world applauds When a black man says exactly the same thing, word for word, he's a criminal & treated like one and everything possible is done to make an example of him —James Baldwin

Powerful: Giants LB Arvell Reese says he didn't buy anything after signing his first NFL contract. "I don't really got nothing to buy right now. I already got everything. I got a car and an apartment." Reese wants to retire with generational wealth.

Ohio State rookie contracts: - Carnell Tate: $51M
- Arvell Reese: $47.8M
- Sonny Styles: $37M
- Caleb Downs: $28.9M Arvell didn't become a starter until his junior season, and Tate spent most of his career playing behind elite WRs, yet they still trusted the process, and it paid off. #NFLU

Rob Gronkowski says he lived off $50,000 as an NFL rookie because he understood the NFL meant "Not For Long" "My agent gave me a $50,000 advance for what's going to come in the marketing world for myself. I just had to pay him back within the first $50,000 I made" "I was able to purchase my first car, which was a 2008 Escalade, and then to be able to pay rent once I got to New England. And then from there on out, I really didn't need any other money" "I was getting free meals at the facility. I just kind of needed gas money. You go out, the drinks are free or you pay for one, you get 10 free when you're when you're on the Patriots up in the Boston area" "So I wasn't really spending much money at all, especially when it got to the season. I mean, you're inside that building and everything's handed to you on a daily basis from breakfast all the way to dinner" "I just lived off my marketing dollars. I was living a low-level life. I had a condo with a roommate that was on the team as well. We're paying $1,500 a month in rent while in the NFL" "I was very frugal and that's how I got away with it. Not having any lavish purchases, the first couple years in the league and just banking away what I was making because I truly understood that the NFL stands for not for long"

The Curt Cignetti College Football 27 cover looks like the poster for a 1994 Disney movie in which a recently divorced NFL head coach decides to coach an underachieving high school team of misfits as a way to reconnect with his son who's grown distant after his parents split up.

🚨 DAMN. Ruby Bridges said the moment she finally understood what was happening during school integration was when a little white boy told her: “My mom said I can’t play with you because you’re a nigger.” She was SIX. And she said hearing that felt like “a huge weight lifted,” because suddenly everything made sense. Why the classrooms were empty. Why adults were screaming. Why U.S. Marshals had to escort her to school. Not because of anything she did. Just because of the color of her skin. A six-year-old child realizing an entire country was angry at her for existing.

Yessir!! Excellence!! Congratulations young man!! Go be great!!
Daniel Nwaekwe just leveled all the way up. This king finished #3 in his class at McKinney High School, dripping in honors (yellow stole, cords, sashes, medals) as he celebrates getting Princeton bound (accepted into THREE Ivies)!!! He earned AP Scholar with Distinction, National Merit Commended, 17 AP classes, Black Student Union President, Mr. MHS, Distinguished Student Award, and building his own business (Starstruck World LLC) as a producer & audio engineer. From the nonstop grind to the Ivy League stage… this is Black excellence in full motion. Let’s gooooo, Daniel! The world is yours, king! 👏🏽🔥

Adam Hoffman raped his son’s best friend for 3 years First-degree felony. Life without parole. Ken Paxton’s office gutted it to 60 days. He walked free after 30. No sex offender registration. His record scrubbed clean. Texas protects predators with power!

Well said @naomiosaka 🙏🏾💪🏽
Naomi Osaka on why she chose to host a party for the black tennis players: “You know I'm seeing a little bit of- ‘Why can't you love everyone for all skin tones?’ and ‘what if someone had an all white party?! First of all I do love everyone for who they are no matter their race ethnicity, (I'm literally half Japanese lol). I can only speak from my experiences in my own life though, growing up as a tennis player I didn't see many people that looked like ME and I feel like it's important to celebrate them. Secondly I feel like it's important to note that there have been all white dinners/parties. I don't know how else to tell you this, I literally seen them all the time and never had an issue with it at all. To the people who ask this question I want to ask you this question too, ‘What is it about POC getting together that unsettles you so much?’ I want to end this by saying I grew up watching my dad get discriminated against, having the cops called on him multiple times at the tennis court. There are multiple things I will apologize for in my life but celebrating being black and appreciating who we are will never be something I would consider saying sorry for. Thanks. Actually I lied, I am sorry. I'm sorry for the people who cannot comprehend in their brains that this is not about exclusion, this is a celebration about how far we have come 🖤” (via Naomi on Threads)
