Richard Sherman Wants To Talk About Police Shootings, Not The Game

Richard Sherman took the stage to let the reporters and the world know his thoughts on peaceful protests by people who are kneeling during the National Anthem. He refused to answer any questions and  used the forum to address recent fatal police shootings of black men in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and in Charlotte, North Carolina, and to talk about the importance of the national anthem protests against police violence led by the 49ers’ Colin Kaepernick and other NFL athletes. 

This is what everyone needs to understand. It is an act to bring awareness to the social issues and to start doing something about it. People are dying in the streets from the hands of the police officers and there is nothing done about it. This problem is not even acknowledged by the society. This has to stop.
