        WNBA holds these athletes out to be "positive role models" yet fines them when they do something positive to connect with the community

        Most of the female athletes in the league are from the very same Black communities.

        Why must they deny their heritage or turn their backs on the community when they epitomize what good race relations looks like in the US

        @WNBA Killings and other violations of civil rights are not "social issues." Do black lives matter to the WNBA or not?

        @Blklivesmatter @CNN The WNBA is funded by NBA. NBA can challenge women's bathroom safety & say Black people can't be safe?
