NFL reportedly funneling cash to 'defund the police' groups through its social justice initiative The National Football League, through its "Inspire Change" social justice program, is providing financial support to multiple groups that openly advocate for the defunding or abolishment of police, Fox News reported this week.
What are the details?
Following a review of the NFL's "Inspire Change" program partners, the news outlet reportedly discovered that among the 33 organizations that receive financial backing from the multibillion-dollar league are three that espouse highly controversial beliefs.
The organizations in question are the Vera Institute of Justice, the Oregon Justice Resource Center, and the Community Justice Exchange, all of which openly support anti-law enforcement causes.
Vera Institute of Justice President Nicholas Turner wrote in June 2020 that his organization "is committed to dismantling the current culture of policing and working toward solutions that defund police and shift power to communities."
In the blog post, Turner celebrated the Minneapolis city council's attempt to disband the local police department in the wake of George Floyd's death. The move was ultimately rejected by voters in a ballot initiative last month..................
