"King" LeBron James (37, USA) of Los Angeles Lakers (NBA) recently announced that "we live in two Americas" about the recent invasion of Congress by US President Donald Trump's supporters.
James said in an interview with the San Antonio Spurs in the NBA regular league held in Los Angeles, California, USA on the 8th (Korean time), saying, "We live in two Americas." A good example."
On the 7th, protesters supporting President Trump invaded the Washington DC Capitol, killing 4 people and arresting 52 by the police.
James said, "If you see what happened yesterday and you don't understand or admit what I'm saying, I want you to rethink how you want America to be seen by our children and grandchildren."
"We all know what would have happened if black people like me tried to get into Congress," he also criticized the fact that the police's suppression attitude toward white-centered protesters was very different from those of black people in general.
"Yesterday's events have to do with the president's usual actions and beliefs," said James, who hasn't concealed his antipathy against US President Trump.
James, who came to an interview wearing a top with the phrase'DO YOU UNDERSTAND NOW?' written on it, said, "In fact, I will never understand the feeling of living black in the United States." Ethan's election as president is our chance to move forward again.”
James was named the Best Player (MVP) in the Champions Match last year after placing the Los Angeles Lakers on the NBA throne in 10 years.
In addition, he was recognized for his activities on and off the court by actively voicing his voice on the racial discrimination issue in the United States, which was greatly raised last year.
