The point is that the media runs to a Black athlete to defend or critique another Black athlete but fails to ask him about a photo of segregation that has resurfaced, putting a prominent NFL team owner in the center of it, even if it was 50-some-odd years ago. It's a worthwhile conversation to be had.
