| Leonard in 2019 (Frenchieinportland) |
Meyer Leonard of the Miami Heat was one of those who chose to stand. His brother is a Marine, and a number of his friends are Navy Seals. Leonard thought long and hard about this decision and discussed it with teammates. He finally decided upon a both/and approach, rather than an either/or one. In his own words, "I am with the Black Lives Matter movement and I love and support the military..."
For Leonard, kneeling is neither literally nor figuratively a black-or-white matter. He prefers to honor both worlds and believes that there is room for individuality in doing so.
