Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban delivered a message for “white people” on social media in the wake of the police-involved death of George Floyd and the protests it sparked.
Cuban, who was in Dallas on Sunday to participate in a vigil to honor the memory of Floyd, tweeted a letter from Emerson College president M. Lee Pelton and wrote that white people need to make a change in their lives.
“Dear White People: We are the ones that need to change. This is not one man's story. This is almost every black man's story. Which is why the problem is ours. We need to find OUR way to change what we do. There is no quick fix. It's a moral imperative,” he tweeted.

It was decided that the problem was a serious shortage of adult males,which had been basically wiped out by poachers (bigger,more valuable,tusks).
They decided to address the problem by importing adult males from other parks so that they could "teach" and "control" the teenagers.
Once the project was completed they saw a quick and substantial improvement in the "teenagers'" behavior.
A lesson for our inner cities?
Yeah I’m sure that wasn’t his first time or his first crime
In each one of these cases it’s been a thug who started the whole damn thing whether it was king Rodney or Thugvon Martin or Saint Michael Brown
If all three of them obey the law there never would’ve been a problem
Now is the time for Black Americans that value our society, our freedoms our way of life, to stand up and denounce this insanity.
Mark Cuban’s Board of Directors of all his companies are white guys and Indians.
So how did the lawsuits for sexual harassment you lied and said you knew nothing about Mark? Are you aware you OWN black people? You’re a despicable human being and you need give all your money to poor people.
He is on China’s payroll.
I have been too busy to oppress anyone
Never cared for Cuban. Who is he to tell anyone anything?
He has a lot of $$$ in the bank under his name. Time to spread the wealth, Markie.
In 2019 there were 549,000 black on white violent crimes in the U.S.
There were 59,000 white on black violent crimes the same year.
Cuban can Eat $hit and Die for all I care.
Hey Cuban:
Why have they decided to always be the collective victims?
Is anyone stopping them from their aspirations? Do they have any?
Come on, man.
Your attitude is so 1950’s.
No one in America is stopping them from leaving their neighborhoods .
I did it and never looked back.
You work hard at your dreams and objectives everyday and take the setbacks and assholes in your life with stride knowing you will arrive.
Failure leaves clues and so does success.
Follow the template.
You can’t say people of any color can’t make it with a straight face.
I have worked for the rainbow of races of very successful men and women and count wildly successful of them who are quite wealthy as friends.
I never hear about how they can’t make it.
They did
You also have similar friends and know your statement to be one that oversimplifies the issues of the inner city and many of your friends came from poverty.
Dont objectify people as some class who just can’t get ahead.
No one is stopping them
Mark Cuban just lost his chance of being elected to anything beyond ‘Director of the New MLK Center’ on MLK Ave.
I won’t be changing a damn thing. I didn’t create the problems. FU!
Hey Mark, it's NOT 1964...
The people who need to 'listen' are the people in the black community. They need to sit down, shut up and hear something other than the echo of their own bullshit. And STOP BURNING OUR CITIES DOWN...
I made a change in my life years ago.
I stopped watching the Mavericks and the rest of the NBA and NFL.
Yes my first thought!!!!
Yeah. Those oppressed 99% millionaire basketball players. Poor, misguided thugs that if it were not for them being able to throw a round leather ball into an iron hoop, they would be peddling drugs on the corner.
His multi-millionaire players are oppressed y’all!
