Notes: Kenny Wiggins on tackling racial issues ‘I want to listen more’

When it comes to issues of social injustice and racism, Detroit Lions lineman Kenny Wiggins is ready to learn more.

Julia Lopez, sports anchor/reporter at KSEE24 News which covers Fresno, California, caught up with Wiggins, a former Fresno State Bulldog, to talk about what’s going on in the world.

“I want to be more educated, I want to learn more, I want to listen more, I want to be there for my brothers,” he said.

In light of the killing of George Floyd and protests on racial equality as well as police brutality across the country, the Lions determined team meetings were better used to hold player-led discussions on racism and social injustice.
