It is appalling that racism still have a place in our world today, which was inspired by racial, ethic, origin and religious differences, what’s happening is no joke, in America black citizens don’t enjoy equal rights, despite the presence of the Constitution, it seems like cops treatment to black citizens, is not the same thing with white citizens.
Racism is another pandemic which everyone needs to be involved and be able to rise and educate people who lack rudiments and value of life, not only in America but the world inclusive, but what happened in America has caused global uproar, citing the need for change, the urgent need for rebuild, what happened to George Floyd could possibly happen to anyone else, and such barbaric incident could have been happening, but when time is up, you have to fight for what is right.
The fight against racism has triggered with high number of people who are in for it, this is the time to speak up and change your community, the time to fight for future generations, to be able to make the world a better place for all.
It is even down to sports, Raheem Sterling, Marcus Rashford, Troy Deeney, and Danny Rose have spoke widely about their stance on racism, which they have been subjected to, they were able to use their social status to influence and educate people on important of building a one world.
Raheem Sterling who was subjected to racial remark, Manchester City forwarder, who scored 20 Premier league goals in 2019/2020 premier league season, has spoken notably about the evils of racism, and the possible ways to get rid of it, but he feels like FIFA officials are doing less in fight against racism, they have to be equal representation in FIFA, that’s where true change will began, Sterling like any other footballers, has properly understand the importance of redefining the world they live in today, the world where everyone matters.
Marcus Rashford, Manchester United player, is another notable star, his rise to stardom was out of tremendous work to be where he always wanted to be, what he did at Manchester, for those children will forever live in England, it is a legacy and life changing intervention, it is amazing to see him helping the kids, having drawn his strength from the same similar experience.
Troy Deeney and Danny Rose, have spoke out about racism and so many other players, Deeney was reluctant to resume training just after the restart, because of the fact he wouldn’t want to endanger the life of his newlyborn son, who has difficulties in breathing, but a person under the disguise of fan, said something horrible after Deeney chose to protect his son, rather than endangering his life, it is unbecoming, not such remark you will be proud of, Zaha has discussed about his lackluster attitude towards social media, because of kind of messages he gets from people, Danny Rose who complained about impolite remarks cops said to him, anytime they pulled him over.
Lewis Hamilton, have been also Inspiring and taking the fight against racism to another defining level in Formula 1, this fight needs all round rebuild and right attitude to defeat racism, it is another pandemic to get rid of, a society where everyone will be proud of what they do, where they live and their neighbours.
LeBron James, NBA star playing for LA Lakers has taken the lead in fight against racism, this is the time for rebuild, it is needed more than ever now, after what happened to George Floyd, it is time to speak up stand firm in this fight.
This is time to fight for what is right, if we can build a society of our own, a society where there is peace, that’s going to be a great legacy leaving behind, continue to educate, to enlighten, together this can be achieved, the fight against racism.
