Rev. Al Sharpton was one of numerous Civil Rights leaders who met with Roger Goodell on Monday to discuss the league’s hiring practices

Publish date:National Action Network founder and president Rev. Al Sharpton was one of a number of Civil Rights leaders to meet with NFL commissioner Roger Goodell on Monday. The meeting was scheduled after

former Dolphins coach Brian Flores filed a class-action lawsuit against the league and three teams—the Giants, Broncos and Dolphins—alleging discrimination.

according to a joint-statement from the NAACP, National Urban League, National Coalition on Black Civic Participation, National Action Network and National African American Clergy Network. The Rooney Rule was established in 2003 and requires teams to interview candidates of color for head coaching, coordinator and senior football operation positions.

In a statement, Marc. H Morial, the National Urban League president and CEO said, “However well-intentioned, the effect of the Rooney Rule has been for team decision-makers to regard interviews with candidates of color as an extraneous step, rather than an integral part of the hiring process.“

Criminal Sharpton

He is NO leader

How does he make his money?

So a liar and con-man wants to discuss things with another liar/con-man. Interesting.

Now I know they don’t plan on changing a thing🤦🏿‍♂️

Reverend? 🤣🤣🤡

Was Tawana Brawley there too? Or did he not use a poor, troubled young woman for his own agenda this time?

They met to discuss the non-issue the NFL said didn’t exist? 🤷🏾‍♂️ the lawsuit was without merit they said? 😳

The people who do the hiring were not in the meeting. The same people who Goodell works for.

Of course he did. This guy will never pass up on an opportunity to exploit black people for his own financial and status gains.

Lmaoooo yea this will solve everything

Al they need to do is “hire” his associates “consulting firm”. This is an old game he inherited from Jesse Jackson. $$$$$$

Grifters grift

Was pretty quiet as the NYPD faced ambush though

Excellent. This should fix the problem. Probably have it resolved by Sunday kickoff

Translated: $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

This never gets old.

Tawana brawley

He is the worst and doesn’t care about black peoples it’s all theater for him he has become super rich while blacks have continue to suffer for the past 20 years
