The most prominent Symbol? A nearly 200-Meter-long, black band of fabric at the along with the pros and their coaches set up and the funnel-shaped playing field einrahmten, before they kneel for a Minute, silent. It was a symbolic gesture, which should be channeled to the country-wide Protest against police brutality against African-Americans in a manifestation of Sympathy, of all the Baseball professionals would participate. The idea came from the newly formed Players Alliance of 150 current and former black players. It was lined with one of a player, a Text written by the film actor Morgan Freeman had recorded and was played over the speaker system in the stadium. The Message? You sound to word heavy Pathos. Such a Demonstration should not be only an expression of anger and horror, was, you. But must at the same time "to show our brotherhood, our unity." For any effort to social change need two key ingredients that show in a positive direction: optimism and empathy.
No wonder, then, that the Whole thing seemed a bit anxious. In a League such as Major League Baseball (MLB), which employs in its long history, in any season, more than 20 percent black players (the current figure is eight percent), are issues such as skin color and social justice not half as concrete as in the National Football League or the National Basketball Association, in which more than two-thirds of the players are African-American.
In Baseball, the greater number of representatives of social minorities from Latin American professionals who have reached a share of almost 30 per cent. Also, you feel comfortable in the America of Donald Trump with his aversion to immigrants from the South are marginalized. But since the majority of them are not citizens, do not identify with the pathetic Patriotism of the host country. The result is an apolitical apathy, rather than open solidarity.
