I don't believe that the new catch phrase is a virtue signal. Perhaps "No Racism" is a virtue signal as it's not a call to action in any way. "It takes all of us" is, as it encourages everyone to consider their role in stopping racism. That said, there group of people that are (secretly) racist will not be motivated to change by any type of messaging, certainly not by big corporates. Nice attempt by the NFL but I'm doubting the effects.
Honestly I don’t think having the word racism on the field does much of anything. As interesting as I find politics and social issues I don’t feel that we need to cross them with sports. But regardless a positive bring us together quote could be a better option. And yea it was virtues signaling it was like posit my the black square on Instagram.
So does this mean they Ended racism successfully?

Everyone should neel during the song and after every TD
