LeBron James has been the lastNBA player to react and condemn the events that took place yesterday when a group of Donald Trump supporters stormed into the US Capitol, creating chaos and a situation that took a couple of hours to be solved.
It was definitely something bad for the nation and everybody condemned those actions, calling out POTUS, his supporters and the people that didn’t do anything to prevent this. Of course, NBA playersreacted to it, sending big messages to Trump for his words.
Now Bron has joined that list, as he shared a lengthy post on Instagram talking about the struggles of black people in America and the differences he sees in the “two Americas” he lives in right now.

James took to Instagram to express his feelings about this whole situation, asking people if they understand now what black people have gone through over the course of history, sending a strong message to those who played a role in Wednesday’s protests and subsequent riots.
“DO YOU UNDERSTAND NOW???!! I know the answer to that. You still don’t cause no matter what happens you still won’t be judge, looked at crazy, chained, beaten, hung, shot to death cause of the color of your skin!!!! 2 AMERIKKKAS we live in and it was at FULL CAPACITY LIVE IN DIRECT yesterday in our Nations CAPITAL AT THE CAPITAL!! #IPrayForBetterDaysForMyPeople”
Bron has been one of the most outspoken players against all the injustices happening in the United States right now. The King has never hesitated to call out Donald Trump and this time it wasn’t the exception.
James knows some things must change for the country to be a better place for everybody. Right now things are very complex in America and nobody knows what else can happen if more people decide to act this way in the next days and weeks.
