Baker Mayfield will definitely kneel on the national anthem

CLEVELAND – Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield plans to kneel during the national anthem next season to support protesting social injustice, police brutality and racism.

In response to a post from a fan on his Instagram account on Saturday who asked him not to kneel, Mayfield replied: “Pull your head off. I really. ″

Mayfield has openly talked about the need for more understanding and justice in the country following the murder of George Floyd, a black man, while in police custody in Minneapolis.

“This is a very important time for change,” Mayfield said on Thursday. “What is being handled now obviously has been going on for a long time. So now everyone has finally come together to overcome it. And do it the right way to hold people accountable.”

Mayfield wears a “I Can’t Breathe” shirt when I exercise. Then, he posted another message outlining his attitude while kneeling.

“Everyone who is so upset with my comments doesn’t understand the reason behind kneeling in the first place,” Mayfield wrote. “I really respect the military, the police and the people who serve our country. It’s about equality and everyone is treated equally because we are all human. It’s been ignored for too long and it’s also my fault for not being more educated and staying silent. “

“If I lose a fan, it’s okay. I always speak in my mind. And that’s from the heart.”

On Friday, Houston Texans coach Bill O’Brien said he would kneel with his players if they chose to do so during the national anthem.

Earlier this week, although not as far as O’Brien, Browns new coach Kevin Stefanski explained that he would support his players in a peaceful demonstration.

“My position is that I want to make sure I support our players,” Stefanski said. “First of all, I want to make sure I sit with them and talk. … I can only promise you this, we will spend as much time as needed to ensure that we are all on the same page and we are the united front of a player, staff, you name it (point of view). “

Stefanski attended a peaceful protest last weekend and has encouraged his players to “enter the arena.”

Maestro de Braga is the first Portuguese in the National Symphony Orchestra of Cuba.

Maestro Filipe Cunha, Artistic Director of the Philharmonic Orchestra of Braga, has been invited to conduct the Cuban National Symphony Orchestra, as announced today.

According to a statement sent by O MINHO, “he will be the first Portuguese conductor to conduct this orchestra in its entire history.”

In addition to this orchestra, the maestro will also work with the Lyceo Mozarteum de la Habana Symphony Orchestra.

The concerts will take place on 4 and 12 March 2023 at the National Theater of Cuba in Havana.

In the words of the maestro, quoted in the statement, “these will be very beautiful concerts with difficult but very complex pieces” and therefore he feels “very motivated”.

From the very beginning, Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No. 2 will be performed by an Italian pianist (Luigi Borzillo), whom the maestro wants to bring to Portugal later this year. In the same concert, Mendelshon’s First Symphony will be performed.

Then, at the second concert, in the company of the Mexican clarinetist Angel Zedillo, he will perform the Louis Sfora Concerto No. 2. In this concert, the maestro also conducts Tchaikovsky’s Fifth Symphony.

“This is an international recognition of my work. An invitation that I accept with humility and great responsibility. I was surprised to learn that I would be the first Portuguese member of the Cuban National Symphony Orchestra. This is a very great honor,” the maestro said in a statement.

“I take with me the name of the city of Braga and Portugal with all the responsibility that goes with it, and I hope to do a good job there, leaving a good image and putting on great concerts. These will be very special concerts because, in addition to performing pieces that I love, especially Rachmaninov and Tchaikovsky, I will be directing two wonderful soloists who are also my friends. It will be very beautiful,” concludes Filipe Cunha.
