Saturday’s news conference with Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll was a little different from usual.
For starters, there was no practice to discuss. Carroll had given the team the day off. Second, there were no questions. Just 15 minutes of Carroll addressing the camera, discussing a topic that continues to dominate the sports world: racial inequality.
[cut]
"(White people) need to be coached up and they need to be educated about what the heck is going on in the world," Carroll said. "Black people can't scream anymore, they can't march any more, they can't bear their souls anymore to what they've lived with for hundreds of years because white guys came over from Europe and started a new country with a great idea and great ideals and wrote down great writings and laws and all of that about democracy and freedom and equality for all. And then that's not what happened, because we went down this road here and followed economics—rich white guys making money—and they put together a system of slavery, and we've never left it, really. It has never gone away.
"And Black people know the truth, they know exactly what's going on. It's white people who don't know.

I'd say the "American" public school system has to take much of the blame.
I really really loathe these self righteous, bleeding heart, virtue signaling hypocrites.
Does that make me a hater? Good!
The whole US school system from el/ho ti universities has been inundated with liberals that havw taught America is evil and must be destroyed. What they forget is that revolutions always end up eating its parents like the Russian Revolution did:
“In the 1920s and 1930s, 2,000 writers, intellectuals, and artists were imprisoned and 1,500 died in prisons and concentration camps.
Well said...
What? “Black people cant even scream anymore”? That makes no sense at all.
Ol’ Pete doesn’t seem to realize he’s the slave boss in this example, ordering the darkies on the plantation to pick the cotton his certain way. He should be letting the players run the team.
Actually, Pete reminds me of Patty Hearst, preaching the SLA manifesto because he’s a victim of “Stockholm Syndrome”.
Since you’re so big on history, Pete, read up on the history of Zimbabwe (formerly Rhodesia). In that country, the blacks murdered all the whites and divided up their land. That’s what’s going on here, Pete, and it’s the communists that are behind it, just like it Zimbabwe. Those who don’t understand history are condemned to repeat it.
Complete idiot
Petey, your Xs and Os on reality are about a planet away from the truth. Shut up and punt. If a black person cannot “bear his soul,” neither you and I can do anything about it. As to “baring his soul,” I’ve seen plenty of evidence of that on video when a fast food joint gives the person the wrong sauce for his burger. Pete, the screaming! Are you deaf?
As to racial inequality in the sports world. How would you like to see quota-based racial mandates for team rosters? I think an NBA with 87% whites would be just as funny as the NHL with 13% blacks.
You spelled A$$hole wrong. I'm really tired of this White people crap, made this moron should get coached up on the true history of slavery, slavery that is still going on in the same places by the same peoples that it always has..........here's a hint Petey, it aint America!
Now my family didn't come to America until 1950 and even though they are 'White' they received no privilege because they were different, they had accents and worse what the ignorant assumed were German accents so not only were they looked down upon they were shunned. Oh and as far as slavery? My ancestors were enslaved for hundreds of years by the same adherents of that religion of peace as Blacks, but one big difference my ancestors didn't sell their own people to moslems. So Petey until you 'learn' real actual history? STFU!
This head coach will show the world that he is as woke as the SJWs that he coaches. And yes, we get it how awful White folks are.
Total douchebag.
Let me tell this jerk, I KNOW my history damn well, and how dare he claim that blacks subjected to horrible educations, know their history better than “whites”, which is a totally racist statement.
So what, pray tell, is this “real” American history that I’m supposed to learn? I’ve looked online, and there’s about 28 different versions, with questionable “facts”, heavily interpreted.
Are these franchises so wealthy now that they have no responsibility to owners or investors? Where do they think they will make their money going forward?
Teach us, O coach. Resign your position and let a black man have it.
Yeah Pete, whatever... I’ve had enough of being preached to about racism, diversity and all this stuff I am not guilty of. FO Pete and everyone else for judging me.
You want to help? Preach the importance of acting right in a civil society, getting educated, being self sufficient, obeying laws, getting married and raising your kids. And most importantly, love and serve the Lord.
Until then STFU, I don’t care and want nothing to with pro sports.
Pete you are a cheating a-hole.
You and your steroid users can all go to hell.
I wonder if he lives in a gated community...
Maybe the fans should work on defunding Mr. Pete and the Seahawks.
Let’s take up Jemele (lately of ESPN) and refuse to let Black (as opposed to black) athletes entertain us anymore. Yes, it will be difficult for them to lose all that income but what is that compared to the liberating effect of no longer being a puppet of the evil white people?
