CelebnSports247.com reports that Martellus Bennett is just TIRED on how ‘White media” outlets continue to make black athletes look like the problem.
While on Dr. Oz Bevy Smith was speaking about losing her father to COVID and how doctors overlooked him because he was black. She speaks on “the dirty stain” racism. This is something that needs to change.
The problem is many white people don’t understand when they are being racist because they haven’t learned what its like to be discriminated against because of the complexion of their skin. That is something African Americans have to deal with from birth.
American’s NEED to pay attention. Listen and learn it’s time to clean up “the dirty stain” racism.
Just look at the way they handled Chad Wheeler. If he was black he’d still be the topic of discussion. If the woman wasn’t a black, if it were a white woman they would’ve made it a bigger deal.

Martellus reposted Deshaun Watson‘s statement regarding teams not being loyal to players, but they have to sign loyalty contracts.
Deshaun Watson – do not let the media try to control your narrative, you have power use it. Fuck this loyal contract shit. No team is loyal to any player
@deshaunwatson do not let the media try to control your narrative, you have power use it. Fuck this loyal contract shit. No team is loyal to any player why should a player be obligated to be loyal when teams constantly break terms of contract whenever they please.

I’ve been in the room with numerous star QBs and I’ve seen the power held by those at that position who performs the way you do. And I believe you’re beginning to realize that power you have. Exercise it to the fullest.

These GMs also deal with Black agents differently than white agents. I’ve seen that first hand. @deshaunwatson agent is black and teams tend not to deal with black agents the same way they do with white agents.

The @Colts didn’t take any money back from Andrew Luck! None of the money they were owed they let this dude leave with extra money. Come on now. What are we talking about here?

Every city isn’t ready for a black QB and franchises know that.

@kuhnj30 don’t ever talk on my name crazy. You know damn well I don’t play that shit. If you wanna discuss the topic of discussion that’s cool. But watch your fucking mouth when talking about me.

@kuhnj30 you white boys get on tv and do everything you can discredit the minds of black athletes by labeling them with with terms like bipolar, head case. So educate yourself on the people you’re peaking about before speaking on them.

Bennett dove back into his original point — calling America as a whole a “white establishment” and how the system gets redesigned once they realized Black people are gaining ground.
No matter how many black people move to this country it will continue to be a white establishment. No matter how black people work at these companies they will still be white establishments.

The infrastructure that this country was built on was designed for white people to prosper. From day one. Years of establishing the grounds to keep it this way.

Every time black people gain ground they redesign the system. You can change the people in power but they still operate within the infrastructure set in place by those who have come before.

A bunch of hateful ass white men wrote the constitution for white people not black people. They argued and negotiated the idea of a black person being counted as a full person. And decided that every black person should be considered 3/5 a person.

What are we talking about here? They made it ILLEGAL for black people to read. Literally had to fight for the right to read. You don’t think hundreds of years of doing such as effects today you’re crazy.
