LeBron after Capital riots: We live in two Americas

“We live in two Americas. And that was a prime example of that yesterday,” James said Thursday night following the Lakers' 118-109 loss to the San Antonio Spurs.

James asked what would have happened if the group of insurgents was mostly Black people.

“We live in two Americas. And that was a prime example of that yesterday, and if you don't understand that or don't see that after seeing what you saw yesterday, then you really need to take a step back -- not even just one step, but maybe four or five, or even 10 steps backwards and ask yourself how do you want your kids, or how do you want your grandkids, or how do we want America to be viewed as? Do we want to live in this beautiful country?”

“If those were my kind storming the Capitol, what would have been the outcome? And I think we all know,” James said.

“There's no ifs, ands or buts -- we already know what would've happened to my kind if anyone would have even got close to the Capitol, let alone storm inside the offices, inside the hallways,” James added.
