Brown: George Floyd and Trayvon Martin were victims of “domestic terrorism”

Following Sunday’s 122-119 overtime win over the Orlando Magic, Jaylen Brown spoke to members of the media for seven and a half minutes.

None of which was about the game he just played in or basketball at all.

Brown continued to use his elevated platform to speak out powerfully and thoughtfully on social justice reform and gave his perspective on the term police brutality especially after the recent killings of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor by police.

“We watched George Floyd, a human being, be violently killed. The four men who nonchalantly terrorized Floyd belong to a state sponsored law enforcement,” Brown said.
