We have known Dwane Casey to be outspoken about racism and police brutality in the past, and on Thursday, he joined protests in Detroit along with several other members of the Pistons organization to protest against the murder of George Floyd.
Casey was joined by his family, several assistant coaches and players Luke Kennard, Bruce Brown, Svi Mykhailiuk, Sekou Doumbouya and Brandon Knight.
Casey also spoke eloquently about the issues at hand, describing his experience living through segregation and forced reintegration and how they have informed his current views on institutional racism today.
Casey previously released a written statement about the injustices, expressing frustration that little had changed between the world he grew up in and the world that his son is currently growing up in.
