As part of the NFL's ongoing commitment to social justice programs, the messages "It Takes All of Us" and "End Racism" will be stenciled on all end zone borders for home openers, the league office informed clubs in a memo Monday obtained by ESPN.

The two messages of inclusion, which will be stenciled on opposite end zones during kickoff week, are key elements of the league's broader, multifaceted rollout intended to highlight its efforts to support diversity and inclusion while the new season begins.

Nobody will see it when the seasons cancelled. Smart move to announce it imo

Soccer has been doing this since the dawn of time but they still throw bananas at blacks..... but if you lived on twitter you would think that the guy sitting in the 3rd row of an NFL is the racist one. Just amazing how statistically the most diverse country on this earth has such a hard on for “race issues” It’s like if you were winning 60-7 after 2 quarters and your coach came into the locker room screaming about the effort in the first half

That’s for telling me. I wasn’t planning on watching any games. Glad my decision is even more solidified now.

Racism will always exist, but at least that’s better than the Marxist organization, BLM.

Nothing wrong with that. At least they aren’t directly supporting BLM like MLB and NBA

That makes more sense than anything else in this thread. I am sure they are concerned about black racists, which are maybe 35 or 40% of their league.

You sure?

I’m pretty sure the NFL doing this will be the final nail in the racism coffin.

Kneeling during the anthem & taking stances that might cost them money / fans ? " SJw's " would never do that.
