We reached out to former NBA player, Anthony Morrow, to understand his perspective on the #BlackLivesMatter movement and uplift his voice with our platform. As a result of recent protests in response to the unjust murders of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and Ahmaud Arbery, many non-BIPOC people are now becoming aware of the centuries of racial injustice that continue to this day. Anthony shares his thoughts on how important it is for allies to hold themselves accountable for the racial injustice they've perpetuated and take concrete anti-racist action.
