WASHINGTON – In the wake of George Floyd’s death and the ensuing protests around the country centered around police brutality and systemic racism, members of the American University men’s basketball team released a united message on Thursday sharing their experiences with race and social injustice.
“We’ve been having a lot of discussions with our team over the past few weeks about all of the events that are happening across our nation and throughout the world, specifically about the scourge of racism in our country,” said head men’s basketball coach Mike Brennan. “Our team decided that they wanted to collect their thoughts and put together a video. As coaches and educators, it’s important that we provide an environment of support and empowerment so that their voices can be heard.”
The video, shared on all of AU Men’s Basketball’s social media platforms, featured every single player and coach currently on next season’s roster.
