Legendary WNBA Star Sheryl Swoopes Says That Black People Can't Be Racist
The Spun ^ | Feb 28, 2024 | Chris Rosvoglou

WNBA legend Sheryl Swoopes made headlines earlier this month when she inaccurately stated that Caitlin Clark needed five seasons to break Kelsey Plum's all-time scoring record.

“If Kelsey Plum set that record in four years, well, Caitlin should’ve broke that record in four years,” Swoopes said. “But because there’s a COVID year, and then there’s another year, you know what I mean? So she’s already had an extra year to break that record. So, is it truly a broken record? I don’t know. I don’t think so. But yeah, that’ll go in the record books. And, I don’t think it should be.”.......

"For people to come at me and say that I made those comments because I’m a racist. First of all, Black people can’t be racist. But that’s the farthest thing from my mind," Swoopes said, via OutKick. "I grew up in a very small West Texas town — predominantly white. My best childhood friend is white. Went to a predominantly white college. Won a national championship [and] pretty much everyone on the team was white. We’re sisters to this day. That’s not a part of my DNA."

“Blacks can’t be racist /s”

Has Ms. Swoopes ever heard of Louis Farrakhan? Or Idi Amin?

Yes, but even the best play at the level of 15 year old boys.

the other thing is what is this "legendary" crap?....so the experts tell us she's legendary and I doubt 10% of people ever saw her play or cared anything about it....

until the wnba becomes a female basketball league, and not a lesbian league, it will remain a small niche market....

Maybe legendary in the same sense bigfoot is legendary. Almost no one sees bigfoot either.

Anyone can be racist. Nothing pegs it to any external wrapper a person has.

The “blacks can’t be racist” is actually taught in colleges as part of DEI training. It’s also one of the states of genocide - all evil resides with a specific race.

Look at the racist training Fani Willis had her staff do.

Isn’t it charming how much some of the racist blacks coddle themselves and then still claim they’re victims of racism?

Wow, real losers in my book.

Not to mention Jewish.

A straight girl in a lesbo league is a threat

Swoopes’ statement is pure unadulterated racism.
