Hawks for Sale! #ATLHAWKS co-owner #BruceLevenson to SELL TEAM after reporting RACIST email! [details]

Posted: 07 Sep 2014 10:52 AM PDT



It appears that is a 'Sterling' type of fiasco in the making going on in Atlanta.  Team co-owner, Bruce Levenson to SELL his stake in the Atlanta Hawks after he SELF-REPORTED a RACIST EMAIL from 2012!

For the second time in a year, an NBA owner will be giving up his team after making racially offensive comments.

This time, Atlanta Hawks owner Bruce Levenson has agreed to sell the team after self-reporting his own racial comments in a 2012 email. The NBA tweeted the following statement from commissioner Adam Silver.

READ his RESPONSE:


In a statement released on NBA.com, Levenson apologized:

I trivialized our fans by making clichéd assumptions about their interests (i.e. hip hop vs. country, white vs. black cheerleaders, etc.) and by stereotyping their perceptions of one another (i.e. that white fans might be afraid of our black fans). By focusing on race, I also sent the unintentional and hurtful message that our white fans are more valuable than our black fans.
If you're angry about what I wrote, you should be. I'm angry at myself, too. It was inflammatory nonsense. We all may have subtle biases and preconceptions when it comes to race, but my role as a leader is to challenge them, not to validate or accommodate those who might hold them.
I have said repeatedly that the NBA should have zero tolerance for racism, and I strongly believe that to be true. That is why I voluntarily reported my inappropriate e-mail to the NBA.

Given those public comments, it's not hard to see why Levenson would cooperate with the NBA in the sale of the Hawks after his remarks. Perhaps had he not been so vocal in the Sterling situation—and perhaps if the Sterling situation hadn't happened in the first place—Levenson would be facing a punishment and not selling his team.

It's a tricky situation. Levenson's intent in his email was to explore ways the team could attract more white males, a demographic he felt could help increase the team's overall season-ticket sales. You can read the full email via USA Today.

This situation was far different than Sterling's fiasco, of course, as Sterling already had a sullied history when it came to race relations.

But where Levenson's email became offensive and troubling is when he wrote sentences like, "My theory is that the black crowd scared away the whites and there are simply not enough affluent black fans to build a significant season ticket base," or "I have even bitched that the kiss cam is too black."

Wow!  Imagine how many conversations that echo this sentiment go on in and around NBA boardrooms?  Just imagine.  A billion-dollar industry made off the talent and sweat of predominantly Black athletes and this type of thinking is going on with the powers that be?

Read the complete SCATHING EMAIL HERE!!

Race is a TOPIC that goes DEEP.  Stereotypes and not understanding other races is indeed a HUGE problem in the world, but in this case in the NBA.  A real conversation is going to have to be had about this.  You can imagine how many other owners and such are scouring through their emails and correspondence to make sure wordage like that used of Levenson is not found.  We all know if there is a 'Sterling' and a 'Levenson', there are others as well.

A private funeral was held on yesterday for media icon, Joan Rivers in New York.  Watch Melissa Rivers and her son Cooper's TEARFUL GOODBYE as they watch 6 pallbearers take Joan's casket away!

Covering her mouth to keep from sobbing, Melissa Rivers bent over the mahogany casket for an emotional final farewell outside Frank E. Campbell funeral home on the Upper East Side of Manhattan.

She then turned to her son, Cooper, 13, and touched him tenderly on the cheek before the black hearse pulled away with the casket.

Cooper placed his hand on his mom's back to comfort her.   Truly touching and emotional indeed.
