*As activists took to the streets in Cleveland today protesting the grand jury’s decision not to indict the cops involved in the Tamir Rice shooting, a call was put out for Cleveland Cavaliers star LeBron James to join the protest by refusing to play.
Under the hashtag #NoJusticeNoLeBron, the movement calls on James to sit out games until the officer who pulled the trigger is brought to justice.
