Earlier this week we told you about Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr calling on the U.S. Senate to enact gun control measures after the Texas school shooting.

Kerr gave a passionate plea for action. But, just a couple of years ago it was Kerr who was speaking at a rally for police free schools.

“This is a real reckoning for much of America, especially white America,” Kerr said.

Steve Kerr in 2020 at the height of the riots, called to remove police officers from Oakland Schools saying "This is a real reckoning for much of America, especially white America."

Following this speech, the district voted unanimously to remove the officers.
