    Out of 158 professional sports teams in the @NFL, @NBA, @MLB, @MLS, @WNBA, and @NHL - guess how many have a majority Black owner? One. 1. 1 out of 158 professional sports team have a majority Black owner. That's Michael Jordan w/ the @Hornets.https://twitter.com/ShaunKing/status/1000039075024441344 …

    My Latest. It's time for Black owned sports teams and Black owned sports leagues. No demographic is more loyal to Trump, and to the oppressive status quo of the United States, than the white men who dominate sports ownership in America. https://theintercept.com/2018/05/25/nfl-owners-white-kaepernick-protest-rule/ …

        Nah, Magic has a little over 2% I think. The Dodgers are one of those teams owned by “a group”

        Sounds like you need to request wealthy Black men/women to invest in sports teams.

        are you sure that this is the answer? Maybe calling on teammates to all boycott games? Its clear that capitalism props up systemic racism, but are you suggesting black only leagues? Please, if im confusing this, correct me.
