Walker’s had enough of athletes staying silent on social issues, and he wants to help.
Charlotte Hornets point guard Kemba Walker opened up about gun violence, police shootings, and other social issues in an op-ed for the Players Tribune Tuesday morning. And in his words?
Enough is enough.
Walker’s fed up with not just the tragedies themselves, but athletes and people with influence staying silent when they clearly have a lot to say. He credited Hornets majority owner Michael Jordan with inspiring him to come forward and voice his opinion.
