According to WSHH.COM: The recent tragic deaths of black citizens and police have generated calls for action from some of basketball’s biggest stars. On Monday, the greatest of all-time weighed in. Charlotte Hornets owner Michael Jordan, who has long stayed out of tense, politically charged events, issued a statement to ESPN’s The Undefeated in which he calls for unity and compassion. In an effort to spur change, Jordan is donating millions from his fiancial empire to organizations that look to build bridges between police and the communities they protect, as well as to the legal defense of those who might otherwise be disadvantaged in getting a fair outcome from the justice system.
