jordan 100 million black

Jordan Brand and Michal Jordan will be donating an additional $100 Million over the next 1oyears to help black communities. This came after the $40 million pledge announcement by Nike earlier today. This donation is a response following the murder of George Floyd by a Minnesota police officer, which sparked ongoing protests throughout the country in support of the Black Lives Matter movement. Michael Jordan previously issued a statement regarding the recent events last week where he said “I am deeply saddened, truly pained and plain angry. I see and feel everyone’s pain, outrage and frustration. I stand with those who are calling out the ingrained racism and violence toward people of colour in our country. We have had enough.”
