Burgess Owens actually said...

"What's truly racist is this condescending soft bigotry of low expectation that have far too long plagued my community."

"The term 'racism' is thrown around today with alarming casual frequency."

"To say that Black players should be judged by a lower standard of brain function than their White teammates is without question a perfect example of real racism."

"Speaking on behalf of my Black and White brothers who gave their careers to make sure that we got past racism, this is an atrocity."
