WATCH: Nick Saban and Alabama Football team march for social justice

Nick Saban and the Alabama football team march throughout campus in support for social justice and in opposition of recent injustices.

A few days ago, Alabama’s senior running back Najee Harris shared details of a march for social justice that would take place on the University of Alabama campus.

The plan to march from the Mal Moore Athletic Complex to the Foster Auditorium schoolhouse door was performed Monday afternoon with Crimson tide head coach Nick Saban leading the way.

While the march was seemingly organized by members of the football program, athletes form various sports across the University of Alabama participated.

Saban also spoke to his team and the public at Foster Auditorium as the march concluded.

This march comes just over a week after Jacob Blake was shot by police officers in kenosha, Wisconsin.

Being outspoken on social issues is not new for Saban and the Alabama football team in 2020. In a video posted by the team’s social media account back in June, coach Saban and numerous players were featured in a video that held a powerful message, “all lives can’t matter until Black live matter.”

CBS 42’s Simone Eli was present for the march and the speeches that were given afterward.
