Stephen Curry opens up on current critical situation

Stephen Curry has opened up on the current situation in the world regarding the Covid-19 pandemic and the Black Lives Matter movement. Amid the coronavirus outbreak the protests have started in the USA, Europe and Australia in response to George Floyd’s death. The Golden State Warriors star point guard, alongside civil rights advocate Clarence B. Jones, addressed the issues about social injustice and the importance of the moment in a talk with the USF institute. In the virtual discussion entitled The Dream Marches On, Curry said: “This is a great time to be alive. I’m excited to see what this next generation does as they venture out on their own. The people I got to walk with at a protest, young men and women of all ages, people are meeting the moment. “This has been the culimination [sic] of 400 years of injustices in a system that is not working for all people in this country. It took a perfect storm of two pandemics at one time to grab everybody’s attention. "We’re obviously dealing with COVID and its threat to our society, and that has opened up a conversation and an awareness level for all people. I hope the conversaton [sic] continues, and that this isn’t just a moment, but a movement and we find changeable actions where everyone can play their role and play their part.” The Warriors superstar also took action as he and his wife Ayesha donated $50,000 to USF’s Institute for Nonviolence and Social Justice. Curry has joined the host of NBA players participating in protests nationwide to address the social justice issues such as police brutality and profiling black communities. Source- CLUTCHPOINTS
