Carlos speaks out about Racism and Bengals

This is tough. Good on Carlos for using his platform to speak up about issues. I understand that people don't like hearing athletes and celebrities put in their 2 cents, but they have a platform that reaches many. They can use that platform for good. I don't like when they try to tell people who to vote for, but standing up for social justice is a good thing. A lot of people hear what they say.

I can understand him wanting to meet with Mike Brown. I don't know that he needed to speak about publicly before it happened. I'm not sure what he wants Mike Brown to do, but I think it's very proactive to want to meet with him and have a discussion. Maybe the Bengals could further be a leader in the NFL for social justice.
