Teams for Black Lives Matter

You can watch the video from You Tube below.

Lakers & Clippers for Black Lives Matter

Players and coaches from the Lakers and Clippers made their presence felt to communities around the US and to all supporters of the Black Lives Matter Movement as they all knelt on one knee during the singing of the National Anthem by the The Compton Kidz Club.

These visual signs of protest were brought about by the death of George Floyd at the hands of Minneapolis police officer. Aside from players kneeling at during the national anther, social justice messages can also be read at the back of their jerseys.

Hopefully, beyond the basketball court, these players would make a stronger presence on the streets, side by side, with ordinary people in support of Black Lives Matter.

We will remember John Saxon

We will remember John Saxon from the classic movie, 'Enter the Dragon,' which made Bruce Lee, a household name.

Yes, Saxon played the role of Roper in the 1973 movie directed by Robert Clouse. The movie also starred Jim Kelly. 

Even Jackie Chan and Sammo Hung had small roles in that movie. Chan played the role of a guard at the island who get his neck snapped by Lee while Hung had a brief fight scene with Lee.

But it was Lee, Saxon and Kelly who would play the roles of three martial arts experts invited to a martial arts competition.

The New York born and raised actor also appeared in 70s era TV series like The Six Million Dollar Man, Wonder Women and Starsky and Hutch (my favourite).

Thank you for making your presence felt in cinema, specially, 'Enter The Dragon.'
