Some UCLA players to don social justice messages on their uniforms

Players from the UCLA Bruins will be wearing one-word expressions to promote social justice during their Week 1 matchup against the Colorado Buffaloes.

According to a report from the LA Times, over half the Bruins football team will be wearing one-word messages on their name plates on their jerseys during Saturday’s matchup against the Buffs.

The players had five different messages to choose from, and their selections will be placed where their names usually would be on their uniform. Those messages to pick from were:

Justice
Love
Peace
Equality
Unity

We’ve seen it on the national stage for some time so far and the Bruins will be no different as they aim to continue to spread the message and promote social justice for all on Saturday.
