The saddest incident that has happened in the last few weeks was the one in Minneapolis. There, George Floyd died due to asphyxiation while being restrained by a police officer. When the news reached the people, it took the fight against racial discrimination to another level. Many tennis players said a lot in support of this and now, Canadian Felix Auger-Aliassime has also done so. Check it out.

Felix Auger-Aliassime On Racial Discimination

Felix Auger-Aliassime posted a video on Instagram talking about the current situation. He said that the form of racism in Minneapolis was very violent but that is not the only form of racism that people encounter in life. To show this, he narrated a story that talked about what happened to his dad. He said,

“So, my dad is driving back home in his car when he sees a police car behind him. He makes many turns and realizes that they are following him so finally pulls over. When the officers came, he asked them what offense he had committed. The officers said that he did not do anything but that it was rare to see a man of color driving that kind of vehicle in the neighborhood.”

This something that would have happened to many people. And it is just shocking to see that even today racial discrimination still exists in the world. People have to evolve and become more inclusive which means racial discrimination must stop. And hopefully, it will.

George Floyd’s death has started a large movement in the United States. Along with this, many athletes have spoken in support of this and some have even taken action to get justice for the victim.
