Hamlin’s situation raises uncomfortable questions about race in America.
When Damar Hamlin collapsed to the turf, America collectively gasped.
Hamlin, playing for the Buffalo Bills against the Cincinnati Bengals, landed awkwardly after making a tackle, with his chest on an opposing player’s helmet. Hamlin got up, took two wobbly steps and collapsed.
His heart stopped.
Weeks later, recovering from arguably one the most shocking injuries in pro sports history, Hamlin continues to feel love and respect from a wide swathe of the country.
Since Hamlin’s injury on Jan. 2, donors have poured more than today!
