New York Knick and NBA superstar Carmelo Anthony refuses to sit by quietly in the wake of the recent tragic killings of Alton Sterling, Philando Castile and the unspeakable shootings of the police officers in Dallas last night.
In a passionate Instagram post that he wrote earlier today, he implores people to make the best use of their anger by becoming engaged in ways that can affect the most positive change.
Melo understands the power that celebrity athletes can wield to bring about social change, which is exemplified by the image that he chose to use in his post. The feelings are raw for many right now, but it’s in times like this where we have to take a stand and do our parts, big and small, to demand that a broken system be fixed.
