Pretty cool stuff here from Nebrasketball:
Anti-Fascist Action Nebraska posted a video on Monday containing clips of Nebraska student Daniel Kleve proclaiming himself the state’s most active white nationalist, espousing racist views and discussing his desire to commit violent acts. The video alleges that Kleve participated in the white supremacist rally last August in Charlottesville, Virginia.
“When my players realized that there’s a person with hate in his heart walking across campus and attending classes with other students and athletes, that struck close to home,” Miles told Yahoo Sports on Friday morning. “They wanted to do something to show that they’re willing to take a firm stand against hate speech and against racism.”
At the meeting, Nebraska players brainstormed about what they could do to peacefully yet forcefully make it clear that racism should not be tolerated.
They made plans to write and film a public service service announcement to air before home games. They agreed to warm up before games in long-sleeve T-shirts bearing the slogan, “Hate Will Never Win.” And they decided to involve their fellow students and other teams at Nebraska in their cause and to partner with the university’s office of multicultural affairs to figure out what else they could do to spread their message.
Nebraska players unite against racism in response to white nationalist's chilling video
