[QUOTE="TRF_heineken, post: 1001372, member: 40658"] But how do you separate between BLM and blm?? Anyone who kneels, automatically show support for BLM in all shapes and forms. Not kneeling shows you don't support BLM. Now wearing a shirt saying rugby against racism, you are being investigated for racism. Clearly wearing the shirt and standing united with others of different races/ethnic groups shows solidarity. The thing is though and this is purely from a South African perspective is that we want to bring across the message of alm, not just blm. ALL LIVES MATTER. There is serious problem over here with the white farmers getting murdered at an alarming pace, our government is denying that it's an issue. But now that 8 of our Springbok stars don't support BLM, they are under the microscope. I appreciate the post that Itoje made, I think it's one way to go about this, but the hashtag on the bottom is taking a bit away from what is said above it. [/QUOTE]
