It looks like Donald Sterling has upset many people over the comments made about Black people.
In an audio released by the TMZ.com, a man identified by TMZ and other sources as Sterling reportedly told his girlfriend that he did not want the woman to bring black men to Clippers games, or socialize with them publicly.
“You can sleep with them, you can bring them in, you can do whatever you want,” a male voice said. “The little I ask is that you not promote it... and not bring them to my games.'' The man on the audio also criticized the woman for posting a photograph of her and former Laker star Earvin “Magic'' Johnson on the website Instagram.“Don't put him on Instagram for the world to have to see so they have to call me ... and don't bring him to any more games, OK?'' he said.
In response to the comments made the LA Clippers owner, activists and civil rights leaders, including the NAACP, Minister Tony Muhammad of the Nation of Islam, National Action Network, Community Coalition, Human Rights Advocates, over 200 motorcycle and car clubs will organize a rally Tuesday at 5:30 pm.
Los Angeles is Better Than Donald Sterling Anti-Racism Protest and Rally will take place in front of the Staples Center in Downtown Los Angeles. On the 22nd anniversary of the 1992 L.A. Civil Unrest, a coalition of activists and civil rights groups will join Angelenos of all races and ethnicities offended by the racist comments of L.A. Clippers owner Donald Sterling at a protest and rally
Activists will call on the public to boycott the L.A. Clippers and ask Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti and the Los Angeles City Council to denounce Sterling’s comments.
“Donald Sterling’s comments do NOT represent Los Angeles and the millions of collective voices of minorities who call Los Angeles home,” commented co-organizer Jasmyne Cannick. “Los Angeles is better than and bigger than Donald Sterling and his racism. If Donald Sterling doesn’t want blacks and other minorities at his game, as Angelenos weare only happy to oblige him. But we want to make it clear, there is no place in Los Angeles 22 years after the 1992 Civil Unrest for racists like Donald Sterling. L.A. is better than that and together, black, white, Latino, Asian, and every other minority represented in Los Angeles will stand together and lift our collective voices in support of the players, the team, and our city.”
