Mike Krzyzewski, one of the most respected voices in college basketball history, made a powerful plea to end systemic racism and social injustice Friday.
Krzyzewski passionately asked everyone to recognize Black Lives Matter as a human rights statement, not a political one. He urged everyone to understand all the ways racism has manifested itself in our country for centuries, and he implored people to do something about it. "Do we not see the problem, the disease, the plague that has been with our country for four centuries? Do we not see systemic racism and social injustice? Come on. We all see that. It's manifested in so many ways: criminal justice, the killings that we have seen and we haven't seen, the denial of economic opportunities for our Black community, educational opportunities, healthcare. It's manifested in so many ways and has been there for four centuries.
