Professional sports and media stardom are just the new plantation for blacks.

Saying plantation doesn’t make it harmful. In fact, they’re mostly millionaires in those industries. That’s the opposite of harmful.

Tell that to all the rejects with TBIs that never made it or had their careers cut short from some other injury.

See, in the CBA, the owners get 52 percent of football-related income, while the players get about 48 percent.

The plantation dynamics of college sport today are most readily apparent in the elite power five conferences (the ACC, SEC, Big Ten, Pac 12, and Big 12) and the sports that bring in the big money: football and basketball. In the 2018-2019 season, the 65 power five universities generated $8.3bn in revenue between them. Yes, 8.3 billion. As Watson succinctly puts it, “There’s still a lot of revenue going out there.” Yet, that money does not find its way into the pockets of the disproportionately Black athletes responsible for generating it. While only 5.7% of the students at the PWIs that make up the power five are Black, that number surges to 55.9% for men’s basketball, 55.7% for football, and 48.1% for women’s basketball. These athletes receive only cost of attendance scholarships in exchange for their labor. In many cases, they do not even receive health insurance.

As a professional athlete, you have a lot riding on your health and wellness. Because the career span of a professional athlete is significantly shorter than most professions (on average 3.3 years in the NFL, 4.6 years in the NBA and 5.6 years in the MLB1), an injury can completely derail your ability to save enough to last for your entire life.
