The NFL Ain’t Sh*t: Protect Women & Blac...

Uppity Productions LLC
About this episode

It’s Super Bowl week and we’re betting on Black, as in always bet on the Black quarterback...shout-out to Patrick Mahomes, Cam Newton, Russell Wilson, Colin Kaepernick, Donovan McNabb, Steve McNair and Doug Williams! But sadly the NFL continues to fumble on its handling of player misconduct and violent criminal assault of women. We get into the nitty gritty of the case of former Seattle Seahawks player Chad Wheeler who is charged with brutally beating his girlfriend and the NFL’s deficient response in this matter and in the past.

Also on the Docket this week: Updates on how the George Floyd case will be prosecuted; reality television couple T.I. and Tiny have found themselves in hot water with myriad sexual coercion allegations amongst other things; and Robinhood, the stock trading app is being accused of robbing the poor to feed the rich following their decision to limit trades last week…What. A. Mess.

If you or a loved one are a victim of sexual assault or in an abusive relationship and need help, go to SafeHorizon.org or call their 24-hour hotline 1-800-621-HOPE (4673). If you are in immediate danger, call 911.
