阿杜,你怎么看?(1)

Kevin Durant is standing tall. The 6-foot-10 NBA All-Star's black pride is soaring with the way African Americans are demanding respect in a trying world in the aftermath of the tragic death of George Floyd.

"This is about our culture. I've seen the care, love and attention we have as a community. With everything going on right now it makes me have a lot of pride.

We have a lot of stuff on our back, but we keep fighting through. It's beautiful to see everybody coming together as one right now for what we all believe in, which is equality.

The black community always sticks together through tragedy. But to see everybody support us in their own way is cool." How did you react to seeing the video of George Floyd dying from police brutality?

It made me think about all the previous videos we've seen involving police brutality. At that point, you get tired of seeing it or wondering if things are going to change or whether we will see this again in the future.

Will people's hearts change? There are just so many questions going through my mind when you see a black man getting slaughtered on TV and on camera like that. It's damaging to see another life being taken away from us. Someone with a family. Someone who was a father. A son. A friend.

It was just horrible to see, especially coming from people who are supposed to be protecting us. We're really supposed to feel like we are safe all around. It's a weird time we are in now.
