NBA, giocatori, coach e arbitri in ginocchio durante l’inno. FOTO

Nelle prime due partite della ripartenza NBA, tutti i protagonisti in campo — giocatori, allenatori e arbitri — si sono inginocchiati al centro del campo durante l’esecuzione dell’inno statunitense, replicando la protesta di Colin Kaepernick nella NFL. Un gesto reso ancora più potente dalla scritta "Black Lives Matter" scritta sul parquet, dietro alla quale si sono inginocchiati i protagonisti

Un gesto di protesta pacifica largamente atteso, a cui però non si sono limitati solamente i giocatori ma tutti i protagonisti delle partite, con anche gli allenatori e gli arbitri in ginocchio
