The Katherine Massey Book Club @ The C.O.W.S. hosts the 6th study session on the late Bill Russell's 1979 publication, Second Wind: The Memoirs of an Opinionated Man. Russell passed away on July 31st of this year at the age of 88. The NBA titan won eleven championships and an Olympic gold medal, and was elected to the basketball Hall of Fame. The NBA is honoring Russell's lifetime of work countering White Supremacy for the duration of this season - every player in the league is wearing a patch to the Celtics legend. Last week, Russell detailed his commitment to being a champion in the sport of basketball. Similar to the science of counter-racism. Russell stressed the importance of being honest with yourself. No one can succeed in any endeavor if they refuse to accept truth (that which is). The Hall of Fame center also details how a number of his Boston teammates bribed White enforcement officers so they could drive reckless without fear of being ticketed. Other White teammate drank "hard liquor," visited every Boston night spot, and shared tales of their exploits during practice. We also hear about how Arnold "Red" Auerbach, Hall of Fame Celtics coach, "motivated" his players by name-calling and mocking their speech impediment other frailties. Known for lighting a cigar to celebrate Boston triumphs, the White coach would sometimes call Russell a "schwartza" to keep him inspired. #CounterViolence #BlackSelfRespect #TheCOWS13 INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE 564943#
