James has now retweeted a the video with a compilation of both examples, shows that the national protests after George Floyd death is happening “because we just feel tired with this treatment here!”

“If you still don’t know why the protest happened. Why do we act like we are because we are just bored with this treatment here! Can we break it down for you simpler than this here ????

He added: “And for my people don’t worry, I won’t stop until I see CHANGE !!! # Shut up and dribble It’s Powerful BlackManComingFullSteam

On Thursday, Ingraham responded to James’s reaction to him Fox News pointed out, saying “every American has the God-given right to speak for himself on any issue.”

“I think to cure and explain the severe injustices, our country needs more dialogue, not less,” Ingraham said. “And we need more respect, not retaliation.”

“Right now, Americans, I think most of them, are looking for reconciliation. That means politicians, police, and even cultural figures all work together. We all.”

Brees was widely criticized by his fellow athletes for saying “never agreed with anyone who did not respect the flag” when asked his opinion about players kneeling to protest police brutality once the NFL season began.

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.
