And just ignore the fact that they are far more likely to be killed by a young black male than any other demographic.

The thing I hate about our current world is that everyone just goes along with lies.
People can say the most outlandish things, and get no pushback.
It's truly become the victimhood Olympics; virtue signaling for sport.
I don't think people like Glanville even believe half of this garbage, but they know there won't be any pushback, so they can say whatever they want to score woke points with the media mobs.

What's the bigger problem: A sport with 8% black players having 6.7% of their managerial jobs being occupied by black managers or a sport with 70% black players having 9.4% of their head coaching jobs being occupied by black head coaches?
Neither is a problem. Is your solution to force owners to hire someone that they don't want to?

As a black person, I love hearing the “black man in America” myth from a guy who: went to an Ivy League school, played baseball for a living and made millions and still gets paid way more than the average middle class American worker to talk about it on TV. Doug Glanville is the epitome of a privileged person if there ever was one.

By my calculations there needs to be more Hispanic managers first.
According to Infogram | MLB Players % by Race:
White - 57.5%
Hispanic - 31.9%
Black - 7.7%
Asian/Other - 2.9%

It’s crazy how black people make up at least 50% of cool people in commercials but poor Asians and Hispanics still get zero rep

I’ve never walked in your shoes, or his. But after reading what you said and what he said, this one thing which really strikes me-
As you mentioned, Granville is a pretty privileged guy, Ivy League, baseball, Nice house, lives in a good neighborhood, has a good job…
Yes despite all that, there are still a significant number of people in this world two are going to see him and think “there’s a n&&&&& Shoveling snow”
Like I said, I’m not in your shoes or his, but I try to be empathetic to people even if I can’t fully understand their experience. As far as that one incident goes, I don’t see his perspective being unreasonable.

Let's be honest here if you live in a multi-million dollar home and you are shoveling your snow, anyone passing by will think you are the help....

Dusty Baker, has had an incredibly successful career by any standard, approaching 2,000 wins and managing against the tides as a Black leader. Yet, he's also lost jobs after making the playoffs and winning 90-plus games. In one case, he had to wait until a white candidate rejected a position because of a lowball offer. Most recently, jobless for two years after winning 97 games, one of the most iconic Black managers in history was asked to clean up the mess after a once-in-a-century scandal in Houston. Being Black, you pay attention to how your legacy representatives are treated. Especially when more Dusty Bakers are needed in the game -- not fewer.
Yeah. and John Farrell got canned at the end of 2017 after back to back division championships and 93 win seasons and a World Series title only four years earlier. It's not many times I get to call an Ivy League graduate a stupid frick, but Doug Glanville is a stupid, racist frick.

The world is always going to have assholes that look for an easy reason to try to put others down. Making everyone pissed off all the time isn’t going to remove them, passing laws for hiring standards isn’t going to remove them, posting pictures on social media won’t remove them, etc.

That came after the Yankees pulled the biggest playoff upset in at least 10 years when they beat the Indians too.
