Duke head men's basketball coach Mike Krzyzewski has spoken out in support of the Black Lives Matter movement.
"Black Lives Matter. Say it. Can't you say it? Black Lives Matter. We should be saying it every day," Krzyzewski said in a video posted on Blue Devils social media Friday:
He added: "It's not political. This is not a political statement. It's a human rights statement. It's a fairness statement."
Protests against systemic racism and police brutality against people of color were sparked by the killing of George Floyd on May 25 and have been taking place across the United States for weeks.
