Still think nobody will notice or think its just a word?
It's a mentality with the word being the face of it. They have equality already. It's a poison narrative preying on the weak minded. Much like yourself.
NY has messed up your common sense it appears.

If the word "Equality" on the field bothers you that much then that really says something about you

I always love when people think I have a certain viewpoint because of a place I lived once, especially when they are too dense to see where I live now. Anyway, "Equality" is not a bad thing. If it were a "#BLM" I would understand the frustration.

What does “equality” have to do with black or white? Your comment shows you’ve missed the point completely. America is and has always been run by white people. But I’ll humor you, in what ways haven’t white people been treated equally? If that’s truly the case and they’ve been treated unfair then equality is something that shouldn’t be “political” and maybe it should become a problem for all Americans and not just a “person of color” problem.

Had this stuff been promoted last year without any "social justice" it wouldn't seem like a reach but it is. These programs don't care and this is 100% politically motivated. Nothing to do with actual equality. It's nothing more than virtue signaling.

The white man has done such a terrible job that EVERYBODY wants to come to this country. Check emigration stats dumb arse. No one wants to go to ANY country in Africa. I'm not a racist at all but sounds like you are.

when you have a Lebron James involved

you have the NFL caving

all the big corporations caving to PC pressure

we have a nightmare situations

most adults do not want to see any of it...but young people think they are ridding the planet of racism...

words do not change hearts and minds...not really

it's all about controlling what you think....that's what's it's about...

Joe Biden will be a massive step backwards, and a step closer to America's downfall...which is what Globalist desire...

many in our country hate "America first"....

check history, this is not the white man country, as usual, white travel to a new country and steal form the Native American's . If you feel that you need to be in a all white city, state or country, then go to Russia or Germany. we were all born here whether you like or not. And yes, the a lot of WHITE MEN have done a terrible job, but a lot of white men have done a great job. As far as Africa, like I said bring your arse to Russia or Germany one less racist here.

Are you insinuating that the opposite of "equality" is "white"?

When you begin to parade it around in response to a false narrative that police officers are targeting black people because of a purported racial motive?

Sure do.

Equality.

Real sensational. Yall are the bunch of biggest fricking snowflakes I've ever seen in my life.
the issue is that once you start putting social/political messages on a field, then the door is open and can't be closed.

THen the SJWs will continue pushing and then you'll have sports infected with more and more social/political messages forever. And most sports fans don't want that.

Where does it end? Or does it ever end? And who gets to decide what messages are "appropriate" and which aren't? Can we put an "abortion is wrong" slogan on a football field? What about "build the wall"? Or "balance the budget"?

You see, it's dangerous to even start this kind of stuff, because now there will be pressure for it to continue next year, and who gets to decide what messages get advanced.

We're bombarded with social/political messages at every turn. We just want sports. Real simple.

The equality people are speaking of now can be viewed negatively in light of the current social and political atmosphere.

For instance, there are local and state leaders restricitng attendance to bars, restaurants, gyms, parties, social gatherings, etc and then it's revealed that they enjoyed these activities why you were forbid. Would love to see equality in this instance!

I wonder if the athletes asking for equality would be happy with equal rotation with all of the players at their position regardless of skillset?

I’m still waiting for an example of systematic racism and inequality in this country. Are there racists people in this country? Yes. Racists are at all corners of the earth. But to say that the USA is systematically racist is the dumbest shite I’ve ever heard. And it’s annoying seeing messages like that everywhere you turn.
