Odell Beckham Jr. selling ‘I still can’t breathe’ shirts to benefit BLM

Odell Beckham Jr. is honoring George Floyd with a special T-shirt.

The Cleveland Browns player, 27, has designed a T-shirt and 100 percent of the proceeds will be donated to Black Lives Matter.

Beckham’s T-shirt is available to purchase for $25 and features the words “I Still Can’t Breathe” on the front and “No Justice, No Peace” on the back, in memory of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery and all those who have suffered from police brutality.

LeBron James, Russell Westbrook, Kendall Jenner and Diplo are among those who have already purchased the shirt from his website, endthistogether.com.

“Like many other people around the world, I was heartbroken and extremely disturbed when I saw the video of George Floyd being murdered by police officers,” Beckham wrote on the site. “In an effort to do something to help the cause of ending police brutality, I wanted to help promote a T-shirt that sends a message that we demand justice for George Floyd and an end to police brutality.”

Earlier this month, Beckham joined other NFL players including Patrick Mahomes, Saquon Barkley, DeAndre Hopkins, Michael Thomas, Sterling Shepard and more in a plea for the league to condemn systemic racism and apologize for criticizing those who peacefully protested police brutality.

How much is he selling his diamond encrusted chain and Cross for?

Come to think of it, isn't it racist for a black man to have chains around his neck? Lucky he's not a statue or someone might topple him.

Had to look up the POS to find out what he’s about.

Let’s expect college football players to start doing the same, from Californiastan first, that lets them compete against their scholarships.

I hope everybody who agrees with BLM wears one. Then I will know who to avoid when I see them on the street.

Why is he giving money to a bunch of white communists? Why not donate proceeds to local organizations who encourage virtuous living?

If this guy had Jerry Rice’s class and dedication he’d be the greatest aid receiver ever to play the game. Instead, he’s just another loser who will play out his career on one crappy team after another.

Since the proceeds are donated to BLM one assumes that this has something to do with 'racism' as opposed to the separate issue of 'police brutality'..... There are three names mentioned here... are there more? If none of the names are of people other than black, isn't that racist?

He won’t stay out of prison for a whole lot longer.

he has had problems and he does not seem to have grown up at all so i suspect in the next year or two he will get into serious trouble.

either way i’m done with the NFL.

I’m sure their ratings will be fine. i know too many conservatives that have no intention of stopping watching the nfl

I think long term the UFC is really what the kids follow and football is dropping off among the younger folks.

Good

Exploited Again – Financial Contributions to Black Lives Matter are Being Funneled to Biden Campaign….
https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2020/06/11/exploited-again-financial-contributions-to-black-lives-matter-are-being-funneled-to-biden-campaign/?like_comment=8341882

Some smart sleuthing by Raheem Kassam and Natalie Winters at The National Pulse shows the donations made to Black Lives Matter actually go to ActBlue. From there ActBlue takes those contributions and sends them forward to the Joe Biden Campaign.

After reaching the BLM homepage, which features a “Defund The Police” petition front and center, if a user chooses to donate, they’re rerouted to a site hosted by ActBlue and prompted with the message: “We appreciate your support of the movement and our ongoing fight to end state-sanctioned violence, liberate Black people, and end white supremacy forever.”

Joe Biden is the top beneficiary of the ActBlue’s fundraising efforts. (link)

This means donations to Black Lives Matter are actually the primary funding mechanism for Joe Biden 2020; and that explains why national democrats (Pelosi) and the DNC have changed their position on BLM as an activist organization, and now embrace them openly.

The financial arrangement also further solidifies the purpose for BLM (Obama/Holder) to align with the AME Church network (Clyburn, Sharpton, et al) which facilitates the DNC agenda (Biden, Perez, et al).

The 2020 financial problem that was being faced by the Democrat National Committee was solved through the use of Black Lives Matter as a funding mechanism for the 2020 election. The more money the resistance movement can push into their BLM advocacy, the more money that actually flows into the DNC for 2020.

As of May 21st, ActBlue has donated $119,253,857 to the “Biden for President” effort.
