All-Star weekend has officially kicked off in Los Angeles, and already CNN's NBA analyst David Aldridge, has slam dunked on the black community by declaring the weekend a national holiday; “Black Thanksgiving” to be exact.
Aldridge's remarks are apparently not sitting well with the public, and several African American's have taken to Twitter to express their thoughts.
Really #CNN an article abt some foolishness entitled “black thanksgiving” was the best you could do?!

CNN named NBA All-Star Weekend Black Thanksgiving because basketball was stolen from white Indiana farm boys in shorty-shorts and Converse.

Hey @CNN at least the Black Thanksgiving isn't like the White Thanksgiving, based off massacring the Native Americans & rejoicing about it!

The CNN article “Black Thanksgiving” isn't lying though. It might not be telling the truth from your perspective, but it is a truth.

Why did CNN call the NBA All Star Game Black Thanksgiving? Did basketball players from Europe take land of basketball players already here?
