Has he openly blamed white oppression for the 7.2% stat I listed? Honestly curious because , again, it doesn't sound like a "we are oppressed" statement, more of he wants more of the black community to take an interest in baseball.




I am very curious why this comment has 10 downvotes. Thats exactly what is going on. Some of yall want to be mad at every situation.

Why are there so many Asian businesses in the black community. They own the liquor stores, nail salons, hair stores, and restaurants

If black people watch a team sport, it tends to be basketball or football, not baseball, hockey, soccer, etc.

Part of the appeal of basketball, for example, is that it doesn’t require much to do it and it scales so you can go from one on one to as high as five on five with few issues.

Baseball? Unless you play an extremely simplified version, you need a good number of players and a lot of space to play.

Asians own those businesses in all communities. If they see a block that doesn’t have a nail salon, they’re going to the bank to get a loan to open one. They have ambition.

Maybe because if interest from they black community grows, it may be good for baseball overall. It may spark more interest from young black athletes to play baseball


Why specifically note blacks? Why can’t they just go after the beat baseball players out there? Wouldn’t getting the best of any race be good for baseball?

This whole “we have to force certain demographic groups to do something” that they have no interest or desire to do is just absurd. It’s not just sports.

I believe it's over 70% now. No other racial group is really even close.

Check that, Native Americans and Alaskans on on their tail.

Racial or ethnic group

Percent of births considered "non-marital"

Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders 17 percent

Non-Hispanic whites 29 percent

Hispanics 53 percent

American Indian and Native Alaskans 66 percent

Non-Hispanic blacks 73 percent

I really wish white people would boycott all professional sports. But entertainment is our number one weakness.

He cares so much about skin color that he needs more people who look like him in the stands for affirmation. I got an idea, how about you stop caring about what color everyone in the stadium is, Mookie. Not everything has to be about race yet they try so hard to make it so!
