Late night NBA champion LeBron James, tweeted about being “sickened” by everyone going wrong in the world. James went on to tweet that he has shed, “multiple tears,” in regards to police brutality against black men.
Hours after James’ first tweet five police officers were killed and 11 others were injured in a Dallas shooting at a #BlackLivesMattersprotest.
James tweeted again saying, “we are all hurting but more violence doesn’t solve the problems in America.”
Many other pro athletes have also spoken as well.
