Given Philadelphia’s own history of racially discriminatory policing, it was expected and appropriate that such protests would happen here as well.

  • NFL Roster Cuts –
    7 bekannte NFL Spieler, die in den nächsten Tagen ihren Job verlieren könnten In der nächsten Woche wird es einen Massenexodus von Spielern geben, da die NFL Teams ihren Roster auf 53 Spieler reduzieren müssen. Die Teams müssen ihr Personal bis Dienstag auf 85 Spieler reduzieren, bevor sie ihren Roster am 31. August endgültig festlegen. In einem knallharten Geschäft wie der NFL spielen frühere Leistungen keine Rolle, so dass zahlreiche bewährte Spieler Gefahr laufen, entlassen zu werden. 7 Spieler, die entlassen werden könnten: Devonta Freeman, RB, Saints Freeman hat seine besten Jahre offensichtlich schon lange hinter sich, aber die Saints haben sich in dieser Saison für ihn entschieden, obwohl sie bereits Alvin Kamara und Latavius Murray in ihren Reihen haben. Nun sieht es so aus, als ob Freemans Aufenthalt in New Orleans nur kurz sein wird. Die Leistungen des 29-Jährigen in der Preseason haben seinen Abwärtstrend nur fortgesetzt. Sechs Carries für sechs Yards in Spiel 1 sind einfach zu wenig. Außerdem hat Running Back Tony Jones Jr. mit 82 Yards bei sieben Versuchen in der vergangenen Woche eine starke Leistung gezeigt. Ryan Griffin, QB, Buccaneers Griffin ist seit 2015 in Tampa Bay zu Hause. Allerdings könnte er bald auf der Suche nach einem neuen Team sein. Der 31-Jährige wäre wahrscheinlich weiterhin als dritter Quarterback der Buccaneers geblieben, wenn diese nicht in der zweiten Runde den Quarterback Kyle Trask aus Florida verpflichtet hätten. Da hinter Tom Brady und Blaine Gabbert ein junger Kandidat in den Startlöchern steht, gibt es keinen Platz mehr für Griffin. Sony Michel, RB, Patriots Michel hat nach drei Jahren in der Liga mehr als genug Erfahrung.

    • EL RACISMO DE BREXIT 12 Workers and oppressed peoples of the world unite! workers.org Vol. 58, No. 28 July 21, 2016 $1 Defend Black Lives Matter End the police war on Black & Brown people A call from Monica Moorehead and Lamont Lilly, Workers World Party 2016 candidates for president and vice president. July 12 — The time has come to open another front in the struggle against white supremacy. What happened in Dallas on July 7 has in the past, under different circumstances, provided the ruling class, the politicians, the mainstream media and the po- lice with more weapons than they could possi- bly need to impose a chilling effect on the Black Lives Matter movement and the struggle against racist police terror. The fall of 2014 was a high point for the Black Lives Matter movement. Thousands of march- ers nationwide were shutting down highways, bridges and shopping malls across the country in the aftermath of the police murders of Eric Garner, Michael Brown and Tamir Rice. But after two New York City cops were shot dead in December 2014, the pressure on the movement was so heavy that some activists canceled protests. It took months for the movement to recover from the political pressure orchestrated by the capitalist establishment. However, in the aftermath of the Dallas shootings, the capitalist political establishment has so far not been able to freeze out or push back the movement. It’s not that they haven’t tried. The pro-cop talking heads have been all over the media trying to blame and demonize the movement for cops killed in Dallas.
