Dak Prescott pledges $1 million to address systemic racism in powerful Instagram post

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott isn’t very active on social media, but when he does post, he makes it count. On Wednesday, Prescott used Instagram to post a powerful statement about his feelings regarding racism and George Floyd’s death, and he pledged $1 million of his own money toward ending systemic racism.

Prescott’s Instagram post features four images, all with words from Prescott himself. He describes how he felt watching the protests and the riots that have happened since the Floyd’s killing in police custody, and that he supports the riots but doesn’t feel violence or looting are the answer.
