The Red Sox itself have a long long history of racism, even John Henry acknowledged this. Tom Yawkey was a vocal racist. Boston changed the name of Yawkey way to Jersey street this year due to his racist legacy. There’s no need in covering it up, its out in the open and dealt with.
Everyone was racist at one point in time before social justice ravaged the streets and minds of our society. It is one of the most vivid realities of the human conditions. In which us humans tend to pack together with others the same culture and color as us. and counter intuitively oppose foreign humans. Behavior gets irrational and physically lethal when males get in a argument. Language is also the most common reason humans can’t get along. Other than that I think it’s time we realize the past is the past and that we can only learn from it not delete it and eventually repeat it.
Racism in Boston?? In other news, Water still wet….

i hope Boston eventually goes underwater, but God helps the good people get out before the water rises too high to leave...Boston is an ugly city inside and out...The perfect image for Boston is the image of a white racist using the staff of the American flag as a spear to stab a Negro attorney trying to ensure Negro children could get an education in a public school for which he paid taxes to facilitate that right to do so... www.reddit.com/r/HistoryPorn/comments/3za3bb/the_soiling_of_old_glory_a_photo_that_ran_across/
BosoxnationI972 Go read and analyze. If you want to make arguments like that. Stats have context. Understand them before framing an argument. Don't embarrass yourself.
BosoxnationI972 yup there it is congrats on showing your true colors 😂 cause we all know big papi is a statistic of crime... oo wait he's a PROFFESIONAL BASEBALL PLAYER
@BosoxnationI972 Boston amd America has a history of racism and under education.anti literacy laws and the Boston bussing crisis had planted a dark legacy in black America your talking points are frail my brother.
Im black and lived in Boston my whole life. I have never experienced a racial incident in 32 years and never met someone in Boston that has experienced a racial event.
You cant ask Ortiz to be the one to condemn Boston. You're asking him to talk about other players being treated terribly when he is treated like literally like a hero there(for good reason) . All he can do is vouch for his peers who are having this happen which is what he did.
C'mon Ortiz...Don't try to turn a blind eye on this one. Yeah, as a professional athlete, you can't let an idiot in the stands throw you off. But you also have to acknowledge that there's a consistent problem that black players face in your city.
You're right Boston is very racist. But you can't ask of him to say he heard people yelling racist shit when he doesn't play the field. He's never in the out field to hear that. Those things are never yelled close to the plate or the dugout because the managers cops security ect will hear it. It's always in the out field where it's only the player there.
Big Papi Doesn't play the field so he's not gonna hear anyone yelling any racist punk telling shit in the out field. So I do believe he's never heard it. But it's Boston so we all know it's the most racist place in the north.
Exactly. People love to label places and people (white people) as racist when one person does something racist. When in reality, in this day and age, most people are not racist
Jalen Brito trashy not racist, Philly fans are loyal af to their team, if they were racist then Wayne Simmonds and the entire eagles team would speak up. They don't
There’s always some idiot or two who will ruin things. I lived in Boston six years and have been to dozens of games, never saw any racism. With all the colleges and universities there, it’s a very sophisticated town.
Pathetic. Here we have Ortiz saying he never experienced that and players shouldn't focus on one or two knuckleheads, but Kellerman just can't stop himself from going out of the way to beg Ortiz to admit that the fans are racist. This is why you're losing subscribers ESPN!
B B Ortiz is their star player and the reason they were winning of course he’s going to get treated differently but a lot of players say the have experienced racism there!
Why would he play them fake if he said he experienced racism he would be treated as the victim and everyone would love him playing to a false narrative
D. Ortiz is lucky to have his jersey when he travels back home; knowing his appearing to look of Haitian-descent, his own DR would have put him in a camp by the border. That in itself is real racism. D. Ortiz is just trying not to make waves so he can be celebrated like #2 in NYY. I give A. Jones credit for speaking out as a 10-5 player, knowing the Angelos family can't just send him to ARI/SD/TB. Why is Jim Rice not appreciated in BOS?? What nonsense did B. Russell have to put up with playing there?
Remember David Ortiz is a a semi god in Boston and he is Dominican. Black Dominicans barley can bring themselves to calling themselves black. David is the last nigga to ask. Ask Bill Russell instead for a accurate assessment
@@dangercat9188 In the service I learned that the light carribens did not like the dark carribens . Just being honest. And the wyte man does not like either of them. Shaking My Head!
@@jeffpro8 But you don't live in Boston? I can agree on an area outside of Boston, especially when I left the city as an African American into the 'less minority' areas outside of Boston city limits. Its still better than Texas,Arizona and the cities within those states. But I've spent considerable time visiting, living and working in each city I named aside visiting for shopping, vacation or a small stay.

wanttocommentify no like intoxicated have you been to Fenway. Was just here tonight, people can’t even walk, it doesn’t justify their actions and I am ashamed about whoever said those things. But one persons actions should not shape a city.
Boston is a racist state I went to play college volleyball and we expirience racism because we are all Latinos. same thing eating in the restaurant. it was crazy.
Edwin Hernández I’m Latino and I’ve lived here my whole life, and the most racist thing I’ve ever experienced was a black man call me Mexican on the bus. I’ve never been discriminated against here and I actually live here. Unlike you who just played college volley ball here. Gtfo.
Haha how about Indianapolis, Salt Lake city, Phoenix - really every city in America is racist. Racial biases exist in EVERYONE; your actions define if you are a racist or not. Come on, Americans love to hate each other....

a Very great thing the organization did....Change is happening..it maybe still slow but its happening..
that's why every city's taking down their confederate shit

Papi says all these dudes are his brothers and I believe him. He seems like the type of guy that can easily become close friends with anyone
Oh Ortiz hasn't experienced racism at Fenway?? NO SHIT
Big papi is kinda Bias because he loves Boston and the Red Sox fans love him but if he was a visitor he might be treated different
I've been to plenty of redsox games and I've never witnessed a racist
If Papi was a Yankee??? he would have heard every racial slur known to man when he went to Fenway lol
Im black and lived in Boston my whole life. I have never experienced a racial incident in 32 years and never met someone in Boston that has experienced a racial event.

Ok what is low-key racism exactly

all the sudden SAS trying to back off from Boston lmao
Stephen A did have Boston's back in regards to this story from the get go.
The media is quite powerful. Boston isn't racist more than any other city. I've been to Fenway over 100 times, never heard a racial slur
Exactly. People love to label places and people (white people) as racist when one person does something racist. When in reality, in this day and age, most people are not racist
Nate Zeller Philly has the worst fans ever Flyers fans hit a new low when a tribute to their owner turned into a bad game.
Jalen Brito trashy not racist, Philly fans are loyal af to their team, if they were racist then Wayne Simmonds and the entire eagles team would speak up. They don't
Still doesn't change the fact that Boston is a racist dirty shithole city.
@@Selbstdenkender but we win bitch
Big Papi is delusional. He is afraid to lose his business connection in Boston.

Are you African American?
interesting thing is now Boston has a Puertorican manager

This guy is playing all the questions safe. Sounds pretty fake.
He doesn't play the field. He's not gonna hear anyone yelling shit in the field. He just gets up bat's and sits back down.
He's "Hispanic" lol that's how a Caribbean people act
Because he knows they gave a privilege pass because of the 🏆

Apparently your living under a rock in Boston
The comments section is cancer
There is no way in hell that I would call a grown man. "Big Papi" smh wth...
Lmao! Facts!
Don't lie bruh...

worked with some illegals for year and a half and ever since then i refer to everyone as papi chulo
You don't have to.
He's not African-American and clearly identifies with being Latino and Dominican first before he does being black.
Lol Papi lying
Never never never would you hear that at Fenway. Boston is The Hub, the melting pot.
As a black man from Mattapan I know racism is alive and well in Boston Mass
lol what melting pot
David Ortiz is not from Boston, ask blacks and Dominicans from Boston, is excluded from the real Boston
W Big Papi 💯
Usually it’s the drunk fans
wanttocommentify no like intoxicated have you been to Fenway. Was just here tonight, people can’t even walk, it doesn’t justify their actions and I am ashamed about whoever said those things. But one persons actions should not shape a city.
Is Ortiz Mexican?
It's Boston....

Blacks are looked down everywhere in the world. It’s sad, but deal with it.
