Alabama coach Nick Saban led dozens of his football players and other athletes on a march to protest social injustice and recent incidents of police brutality against Black men and women.
The group marched the short distance Monday on the school's campus from the Mal M. Moore Athletic Facility to Foster Auditorium, where segregationist Gov. George Wallace stood at the door in 1963 trying to block the entry of two Black students.

Don't speak from what you do not know or understand. I am from the South and generalizing like that is wrong. I was statione up north and out west and in the pacific and I can guarantee I have seen a whole lot worse than where I am from. The South doesn't have a monopoly on racism...just doesn't now nor has it ever fit the narrative to talk about it anywhere else.

Lt Col Scott Shuttleworth I am from the south. I have spent most of my life in the south. Primarily in Texas, Kentucky, and Tennessee. I have lived in Kentucky since 2007. I have lived in Washington state and Maryland and I did not experience racism very much at all. So yeah I do know how racist it can be in the south. While racism is not exclusive to the south, it certainly holds up to its reputation.
