ニューヨーク・タイムズさんのインスタグラム写真 - (ニューヨーク・タイムズInstagram)「Athletes from the NBA, WNBA, Major League Baseball and Major League Soccer took their boldest stand yet against systemic racism and police brutality, refusing to play scheduled games on Wednesday in response to the police shooting of Jacob Blake, a Black man shot by police in Kenosha, Wisconsin, this week.⁣ ⁣ @nba players have pledged to resume the season after their walkout of playoff games triggered a far-reaching work stoppage that stretched across professional basketball, baseball, tennis and soccer. The plans were confirmed by two people who were part of the discussions who spoke on condition of anonymity because talks were ongoing about several details, including when to return to play.⁣ ⁣ The athletes’ protests began with an organized walkout by Milwaukee Bucks players, a move that had virtually no precedent in NBA history. The NBA postponed all of the playoff games scheduled for Wednesday and, later, the league also postponed 3 playoff games scheduled for Thursday.⁣ ⁣ Athletes from other professional sports organizations also sat out games and matches in protest against police brutality, escalating a season of demonstrations for social justice — 3 @mlb games were called off, 5 @mls matches were postponed and matches at the @cincytennis were suspended after tennis star @naomiosaka said she would sit out the semifinals to protest.⁣ ⁣ Tap the link in our bio for the latest updates on the professional sports walkouts. ⁣ ⁣ What’s in these photos:⁣ ⁣ An empty court after the walkout that took place before a scheduled playoff game between the @bucks and the@orlandomagic.
