Bear with me, you guys, I have A LOT of stuff for you today.
On Thursday afternoon, The Kansas City Star put together an all-star forum on race and sports featuring host Blair Kerkhoff (with help from Vahe Gregorian), Cuonzo Martin, Bill Self, Royals GM Dayton Moore, Chiefs MVP Tyrann Mathieu, KSU hoops star Christianna Carr, and Negro Leagues Baseball Museum president Bob Kendrick.
It was tremendous, and I mean that wholeheartedly.
Some highlights from each member of the panel:
Christianna Carr is a Minneapolis native and has been active on social media about what she’s doing to fight social justice, including driving to Topeka to peacefully protest right after George Floyd was killed, and returning to Minnesota recently to protest with the 10K Foundation and help collect donations.
