Donald sterling is the 81-year-old owner the Los Angeles Clippers which is an NBA
basketball team a professional basketball team
Donald Sterling's girlfriend is named the East aviano
she happens to be reportedly and I don't even know what that means when it comes
the race but it's relevant to the story
she is reportedly black and
mexicans she cheese mixed race according to her own statements
an audio clip was posted by TMZ which purports to be a conversation between
Donald sterling and his girlfriend bea stiel bianhao
in which the man assumed to be Donald sterling
is talking to his girlfriend about among other things
now he doesn't want to bring black people to his team's games
in the same clip he's angry with her for having pictures of herself with other
black people
including magic johnson the former Los Angeles Lakers basketball player on her
Instagram page
that particular picture has since been deleted from her Instagram account
let's listen to some of the audio Louis the repercussions to this have been
is so far reaching let's first just listen to a little bit at the idea this
is like 10 minutes long
I'll just play a little bit for you for you why am I think that he didn't want
my
walking on you pussy well
you to relax in our own life girl wife his knees
walking closely with black people but
why is wrong message to you if anything
doesn't matter there why don't more yellow
were I you don't know that may be a stupid
maybe you don't know with people the
it doesn't matter yeah it matter do you know there are many
ya I don't know this part is funny
he seems not to know what races girlfriend is which you would think
would be like a big progressive
thing like he doesn't know what race she is he doesn't care what race she is
but no then he goes on to say what race she supposed to be
acting like or appearing to be you know that I'm he told me you literally means
yes I understand you I mean change from day to day
up so peaceful people call you and tell you that I have like people on my
Instagram any while I'm here yeah
bothers me a lot you 1 from block access your
associating with black people yeah you have a few you also
you with black people I'm not feeling you know
me it will be available in white or invalid lucky number I'm
I'm a girl looking well yet we this is just amazing low as I mean number one
I would love to know I would love to meet the people who call Donald sterling
personally they call 81-year-old Donald sterling
to tell them that his girlfriend has pictures on Instagram with a black guy
I would love to talk to those people have a conversation about what's going
on in their lives
this is the absolutely amazing I
I find it hard to believe that owner up other
NBA team I can its
have this seemingly deep resentment for black people and he doesn't that seem
kinda by I impossible I'm a busy this year but you're going right to the main
issue I wanted to address I'll just skip to this Louis because you getting right
to it which is
we've talked with people like dave is ira right about the context of
in the NFL there was this millionaires purses billionaires the players trying
to negotiate benefits
from the owners collectively bargain et cetera
and a lot of people said those millionaire players who cares they're
already millionaires
and a desire to explain to us why it was important that this battle be had
because you have these billionaire owners
who see this just as profit a responder whatever clearly Donald sterling
sees these black players that he has on his team
as away as as a means to achieve more profit
it doesn't mean that he respects the most people
her that he's OK with his girlfriend hanging out with any these
former players that is like magic johnson who she's pictured with
its it's really the most important thing which is you don't really need to
respect black people
as Donald sterling is telling us here to use black people
for your personal finer benefit as he's doing here with his bass but the Nets
really the underlying issue here
yeah funny you should raised that way because it sounds like you're making it
sound like the same thing is slavery
arming which job courses is different story
but that I its really too bad for a bit dated this is not going to end well
you might have to sell the team it I mean book for the first time in a long
time the Clippers are
a pretty solid team and he beat out fair value has probably
round substantially under his ownership well this is really not going well
the NBA's investigating the reporting magic johnson who happens to have been
mentioned there says he's boycotting Clippers games while he's in charge
listen to this Donald sterling was set to receive the Lifetime Achievement
Award from the
NAACP in May that's not happening anymore and
any NAACP interim president Lorraine Miller
said they're canceling the award let me make it clear she said the NAACP
will not be honoring mister sterling at an upcoming los angeles branch
event and we have strongly urged are Los Angeles unit to take the necessary steps
to rescind the previous award that they be stowed upon him Doc Rivers former
Boston Celtics coach who is now the coach
love the LA Clippers he is african-american he said as far as the
comments
were not happening over and we're not happy with them
players dumped their warmup jacket in the middle of the court and turn their
warmup jerseys inside out in protest
up I don't know what else to say I will mention one other thing I got a couple
of emails and David you're not gonna mention the Donald sterling
is a lifelong Democrat because you want to hide that
okay well I'll tell you what I know Donald sterling has it made political
contributions since the early nineteen nineties
in other words twenty or more years ago he didn't donate to some Democrats in
the early nineteen nineties
if that's the story to you by all means
have at it yeah
yeah arm we talked about it we mentioned it and restore going to get males in
voicemail saying that we didn't talk about it because
people like to hate on us and not even was into the clips or watch the show
