Closely affected by homophobic and transphobic hatred, since his transgender sister, Mia Henderson, was murdered in 2014 in Baltimore, Reggie Bullock has a heavy heart after the massacre perpetrated in an LGBTQ club, on the night of Saturday to Sunday in Colorado Springs, Colorado, which left 5 dead and at least 18 injured.
A true spokesperson for the cause in the NBA, and even winner of the second Kareem Abdul-Jabbar award last spring, which rewards the “champion” of social justice in the league, the Mavericks winger did not hide his sadness in the face of this drama with which he is all too familiar.
” Inevitably, in view of my commitment to this community, it touched me a lot. I have a friend who is from the LGBTQ community, and she told me recently that she felt there weren’t even quiet places left for them to gather and party. » said the former North Carolinasaddened but determined to continue his fight.
” But listening to him talk about this drama, I became even more aware of the importance of my work. I must continue. I couldn’t do much this weekend, because we had a game the next day [contre Denver, ndlr]. But I will continue to work. I believe in January we get [des membres de la communauté] for a game. And for my part, I continue to be in contact with associations, to do everything in my power to defend the LGBTQ community. »
In an American society more divided than ever, bruised by hateful attacks on too many occasions, Reggie Bullock wants to remain a voice that carries, and a reassuring figure for the LGBTQ community.
” In our society, there are far too many malicious people who want to make this community suffer. I have to keep standing up to this hate, I have to keep bringing attention to the hate that the community is facing. ” he added. ” I send all my thoughts and prayers to the families of the victims. »
