Sixers Forward Tobias Harris: ‘Y’all Hear Us, But You Ain’t Listening’
Forward Tobias Harris wrote a piece for The Players' Tribune on the current situation involving protests over George Floyd's police killing.
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) — Philadelphia 76ers forward Tobias Harris has been active both on social media and personally walking in peaceful protests in the city in the wake of George Floyd’s death. Harris further used his voice and platform on Wednesday, penning a column for The Players’ Tribune, titled “Y’all Hear Us, But You Ain’t Listening,” in which he discusses people losing sight of the message the protests have been about.
In the piece, Harris starts by laying out the facts of the situation.
“A white police officer killed an unarmed black man, and he was able to do it in broad daylight, with three other cops watching, because of the color of his skin,” Harris wrote.
