Canceling and demonizing people will not change this fact. To those of you who want to demonize BMDC, if you want to continue bullying us, then maybe you should be bullying Cornel West as well, if you have any consistency at all, which I doubt.

His response is to have  3 categories in sports. He is asked the question at about 18:45 in the video and his response is at about 19:15 in this video:  https://www.youtube.c...
