The WNBA says it will dedicate the 2020 season to addressing the nation's 'long history of inequality, implicit bias and racism.' Players will wear warmup shirts with the words 'Say Her Name' and 'Black Lives Matter.'
Guillen, an Army specialist, was last seen in April at Fort Hood in Texas. Last week, her remains were found near where she went missing. Bland died in 2015 police custody in Texas.
"We are incredibly proud of WNBA players who continue to lead with their inspiring voices and effective actions in the league's dedicated fight against systemic racism and violence," WNBA Commissioner Cathy Engelbert said in a statement. "With 140-plus voices all together for the first time ever, we can be a powerful force connecting to our sisters across the country and in other parts of the world," Ogwumike said.
