They're already calling for him to be fired.

This guy probably doesn't hold a racist bone in his body and definitely wouldn't have gone to a black museum voluntarily if he did.

And he would've been better off not going because then he would have no reason to mention it and would've avoided this incident altogether.

According to one article I read

The slur had gone almost entirely unnoticed until that apology, after which some social media users went back and found the clip to share.

He tried apologizing and it's only then that it drew attention. You can't win.

>white person simps for blacks, gets his life ruined by blacks in return

Signaling weakness is signaling that you're ready to die. Every animal knows this instinctively except for white people.

In this context "Negro League" isn't a slur, it's what it was called. "Negro" was the PC term for awhile.

The C in NAACP isn't a slur either, although is was for awhile, because that was the PC term at its founding.

Just clearing it up that the way he pronounced it sounded like hard R

But if you say Negro League fast enough, it does sound like hard R so he may not even have said it, but still has to apologize for it.

How dare you use logic like that. The morons complaining can’t piece that together most likely
