For non black folks who wanna understand being black in this country, systemic racism, & injustice, today is a good day to understand. Today is an example of how hundreds of years have passed but it's the same results. How a wall would receive more justice than a black woman...
You can't "fix" this system. It was a system designed while in mind to keep POC down. A system created where black people were not looked at as equals but as property or anything less than equals. This extends to banks, real estate, law, education, physical/mental health, & more.

Some @USLLeagueOne standouts this weekend: @FTLauderdaleCF Eduardo Sosa:
6 chances created, 1 assist, 13 duels won, fouled 7 times
@RichmondKickers' Ryley Kraft:
86% pass accuracy & most passes on team
#USL
Eduardo Sosa completely controlled the midfield and was able to draw in defenders to open up through balls to the outside lanes where Fort Lauderdale has found success. Including their 1st goal of the game.

Shoutout to the league for promoting a derby created by the supporters, for the supporters, and showcases the black soccer community's influence on the game! Something that is easily recognizable but rarely discussed! #USL#HennyDerby uslleagueone.com/news_article/s…
Folks have asked me why Henny is a staple in the black community, so quick facts
Black people were introduced to cognac in France during WWII, being celebrated for their heroism when they weren't in their own country...

So a Richmond & Forward supporter starts the #Hennyderby organically without the club. Make the trophy, content, & everything else without the club, & now the club creates a campaign with merch to monitize off of it without including Richmond or the guy who actually started it??
I know some of the proceeds go to local black organizations but why isn’t that in ANY of the messaging? Why was the person who literally started this whole thing, not involved in the campaign or even knew about any of it at all? And then folks subtweet him for reacting to it?
