ESPN held its annual ESPY Awards on Sunday, this time with no red carpet crowds or in-person award presentations. Instead, this year's ceremony opened with a video featuring Russell Wilson, Megan Rapinoe and Sue Bird that called for unity against racial injustice.
The trio started the show from their own homes and delivered a powerful message by addressing the critical social issues the country is facing in light of the killings of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor and Ahmaud Arbery.
After highlighting the achievements of iconic Black athletes who fought for social change—Jackie Robinson, Muhammad Ali, Bill Russell and Serena Williams—Wilson addresses the issue of police brutality, and his hope for a better future for his children.
