Sad news on Christmas Day with the passing of K.C. Jones. As a young boy I was mesmerized watching KC and the Boston Celtics battling against the LA Lakers & Wilt Chamberlain’s 76ers. KC won an incredible 8 championships in a row as a player and 2 as a head coach. He also won 2 NCAA Championships.

Between the two they have 21 NBA Rings ... #rip #boyhoodmemories photo credits Dick Raphael Getty Images, Rick Stewart Getty Images & Bill Russell @realbillrussell

Boost your immune system & gain energy! 10-DAY SUMMER GREEN SMOOTHIE CHALLENGE

Black people have been fighting for equal rights since slavery. . In 1968 a year after the 1967 rights riots swept across the U.S. Martin Luther King & Bobby Kennedy were assassinated. At the 1968 Summer Olympics (48 years before Colin Kaepernick took a knee) these iconic pictures were taken. . Black American athletes Tommie Smith and John Carlos each raised a black-gloved fist during the playing of the US national anthem, "The Star-Spangled Banner". While on the podium, Smit...h and Carlos, who had won gold in a world record time of 19.83 and bronze medals respectively in the 200-meter running event of the 1968 Summer Olympics, turned to face the US flag and then kept their hands raised until the anthem had finished. In addition, Smith, Carlos, and Australian silver medalist Peter Norman all wore human-rights badges on their jackets. Both Smith & Carlos were sent home immediately. . . . . . . . . . . . #blacklivesmatter #blm #racism #athletes #athlete #protest #change #changetheworld #olympics #humanrights #policebrutality #200m #worldrecord @ Mexico City, Mexico
