Spot on .They all need to be educated on that issue. In India where we sell fair and lovely for skin-lightening, everyone needs to be educated.

Colorism is different from racism, Colorism exists even between people of color.

 

Even though a team lead by fair & lovely model Virat is going to lecture the world on colorism? Fine, let him own up to the fair & lovely nonsense first.

He is lecturing for money and I never said it is right on his part. No colorism is not different from racism, it is the same you are being judged by tone and color of your skin and judged with premeditated bias.

So he was just racist for money, & we should be appreciating he is doing fake PR against racism which he had no issues with when offered money? Got it.

It's a strange hill to die on from QDK perspective. However this one is completely on CSA, why enforce it on players after the start of the tournament, it's not like the movement started a couple of days back.

 

Why can't ICC rebrand taking the knee as support against 'no room for racism or discrimination' similar to the EPL as opposed to taking the knee 'in support of BLM'. It's always easier to get behind a cause as opposed to a movement which may or may not have political ramifications.

 

Even within USA it is not enforced a place where BLM originated. It is choice of the individuals to take a knee or not. If i am right EPL triggered this "taking knee" frenzy more than NFL.  Most of our Indians watch EPL avidly.
