A day’s gone by since the altercation between Russell Westbrook and a Jazz fan that has now been banned for life from Vivint Smart Home arena.
With the dust settled, and a chance to process everything, I was reminded of something I learned from my mom’s example.
In Idaho, on what I think it was my 12th birthday, my mom threw a party for me and a few of my friends. I don’t remember anything about the party other than the moment when we were standing around the cake ready to sing happy birthday one of my friends used the N-word.
