Brogdon Running Point in Fight for Racial Equality

Whenever NBA players are permitted to return to their practice facilities and begin preparing for the resumption of the season, Malcolm Brogdon plans to arrive back in Indianapolis a week earlier. He'll have more than basketball on his mind, however.

Brogdon, speaking to reporters via a Zoom call on Friday, said he hopes to initiate actions that appropriately follow up on all the words he has spoken regarding racial inequality since George Floyd was killed by a police officer on May 25.

He mentioned a Pacers-led march as a possibility if timing permits, but more certainly the formation of a personal foundation that will address educational inequities such as by funding new charter schools in Indianapolis.
