The reality is that we're in the year 2021 and yet currently we see one African-American Ownership Position in Professional sports - Michael Jordan. The social disturbance, the actual audacity of calling on the Affirmative Action to take place is what is killing our continent today. Knowing without a shadow of a doubt that it should be in place yet isn't, kills the imagination of people of color and anyone with a sense of what is right including dignity and integrity. This issue really does need to be addressed in the reparations of African-Americans and people of color to get the sense they're being compensated for the hatred of their people. Hatred, plain and simple hatred and don't get me wrong it does exist and is constantly being perpetuated.
We like to preach equality within sport yet Hockey comes into question when speaking for Canadian values. When someone in the Muslim or Sikh community try out for the Hockey Team they are cut, even though they are probably the best on the team. All because their Dad wears a head-dress. This is a systematic practice within Toronto, and there have been lawsuits as a result of some racist coaching practices as a result. Then, when our kids are trying to score goals for their mighty Maple Leafs, people are so blinded by hatred that they automatically deny the kid the enjoyment of their procreation of goals and good things like that and daggers get thrown in their faces all because they are 'Black', 'Muslim' or 'Sikh', or 'Jewish', or 'Portuguese'. Where does it end?
