NBA Commissioner Adam Silver Said This To Rachel Nichols, Host Of ESPN's The Jump, On March 18, A Week
NBA commissioner Adam Silver said this to Rachel Nichols, host of ESPN's The Jump, on March 18, a week after announcing the suspension of league play because of safety concerns over the emerging coronavirus pandemic. This same sentiment can be applied to the current state of social unrest sweeping the nation in the past few months after the killings of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor and Ahmaud Arbery. The NBA again is playing a leading role as the league prepares to resume play during both a global pandemic and a racial reckoning going on around the country and across the globe.
Through all this stress and uncertainty, Silver has made decisions that take into consideration the well-being of players and the status of the NBA. In addition, Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases since 1984, has gone so far as to give his own sign of approval for the "bubble" campus concept in Orlando, Florida, where NBA games are scheduled to restart next week.
This is exactly a role model for professional sports in this world. I know it cots a lot.

“Jimi Hendrix’s cover at Woodstock 1969″ (He thought he would be arrested after this performance.)
“Lebron James statements on Black Lives Matters“
This performance has a kinship-like relationship with these activities.
Actually, this is better than 2014′s and as good as Jimi’s \m/
Defeating extremism requires tackling the real economic grievances that feed it as well as confronting its ideology and organisation. In the case of Golden Dawn, it took years of committed activism and then mass anti-fascist protests before the government took action. The hope is that this week’s verdicts may be the death knell for the movement in Greece and perhaps the catalyst for improvements abroad. But as the activist DeRay Mckesson has written: “Hope is not magic. Hope is work.”
American voters are good at dancing 💃 🎶 🕺
As far as I know, dancing is more common in America compared to other countries. The video of National guards and BLM protesters dancing together was also very impressive to me.
From New York to Georgia, people brought #JoyToThePolls on Election Day with music, dance, and an positive energy 🕺🏽🎶

A feature of terrorist’s attacks is that to express something and to exercise violence tends to be synonymous. Exercising lethal force is nearly equal to praise “God’s greatness.” In other case in 2020, white supremacy groups who planned and prepared for kidnapping the governor in Michigan were arrested. Kidnapping is their expression. Not marching on the streets, writing an articles in blog.
As a results, terrorists also attacks shared preferable ways to express things.
