I guess this is a funny gotcha, but the guy just used an old picture before the game to say he was excited about the game. Our time is probably better served talking about his hatred of women, gays, and the poor.

Mike Ditka, "There has been no oppression in the last 100 years that I know of,” Ditka said. “Now maybe I’m not watching it as carefully as other people. I think the opportunity is there for everybody — race, religion, creed, color, nationality. If you want to work, if you want to try, if you want to put effort in, you can accomplish anything.”
Nothing bad has happened since 1917.
1917.

If more protests focused on Jim Crow, where there is indisputable evidence of of systemic and legally enforced racism against people who are walking on the streets today, IMO we would get a lot closer to a point where most people can empathize with the lasting effect of the history of black America.

I believe that the majority of white Americans who currently feel no or minimal empathy for people of any particular color are not now, or ever going to be, an argument, observation, or a strategy away from grasping at that basic human understanding.
