Seattle Seahawks coach Pete Carroll delivered a message aimed at White people during a video conference call with reporters on Saturday.
Carroll called on coaches to listen to Black people on racism theyve experienced in the U.S. He talked about the issues his players have faced upon returning to camp and said that White people dont know enough about racism in the U.S.
[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, according to the teams website. Black people can't scream anymore, they can't march anymore, 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.Carroll added: And Black people know the truth, they know exactly what's going on. It's White people who don't know.

We've been unwilling to accept the real history. We've been taught a false history of what happened in this country, we've been basing things on false premises, and it has not been about equality for all, it has not been about freedom for all...

Whadda bunch of bovine BS....
Pete Carroll has chosen sides.
He and his team will be playing in an empty stadium until their franchise goes under.
See ya Pete.
This is 100% about money. Every aspect of the riots and the sports leagues speaking out and the media and the election. It's ALL about money. Pete is no different.
Somebody please send him the video of Larry Elder on Varney’s show this morning. Elder obliterated all the lies.
As I said up-thread, he was handed a speech to deliver. He might have changed the wording a bit to make it sound authentic, but he's just keeping his team happy.
I dunno. This is Seattle, after all.
RIP NFL not one dime comes out of my pocket
What took you so long to come out with a statement Cheaty Petey? Was their grumbling from the tribe you weren’t down with the cause? Never liked this low character cheater.
Spoken as a true bigot.
I wonder if he knows the real history of the African motherland. Didn’t Africans capture other Africans as slaves? Didn’t Africans kill other African tribes?
What’s disgusting is it won’t be the Antifa/BLM commies supporting the NFL in Seattle, it will be halfwits who wouldn’t cross the street to piss on Antifa if it was on fire again, but will ignore the NFL supporting the commies because sports.
Screw the NFL and NFL fans, and I used to be a big fan myself. Steve Largent would not put up with this crap.
