Written by SOURCE on May 6, 2023
What was supposed to be about The National Negro League Baseball Museum and their fundraising campaign, has been co-opted—at least briefly on Friday night, by baseball broadcaster Glen Kuiper, who used the N-word in place of “negro” for the organization’s name.
He has since apologized on the air.
Per The Associated Press, The National Negro League Baseball Museum is hoping to raise $25 million for a new building to house its education center for what has become one of the world’s unique collections of baseball memorabilia.
On the air, Kuiper, a former athlete said, “We had a phenomenal day today. N*gger league museum, and Arthur Bryant’s Barbeque.”
