The images of the protests that are invading not only the United States are traveling around the world. Among these there are testimonies of many athletes, especially NBA and NFL, who are participating in marches, often taking the floor because they invest a role in some ways public. Russell Westbrook paraded through the streets of his Compton with Demar DeRozan and Kendrick Lamar, two other influential personalities who have their roots in one of the areas of Los Angeles already known for great protests.
"Spending 11 years in Oklahoma opened my eyes to the rich and sordid history of the state" Westbrook said. "When I learned about the heartbreaking events that happened in Tulsa nearly 100 years ago, I knew this was a story I wanted to tell. It’s upsetting that the atrocities that transpired then, are still so relevant today. It’s important we uncover the buried stories of African Americans in this country. We must amplify them now more than ever if we want to create change moving forward".
