FSU coach Leonard Hamilton: We've made progress, but we must keep fighting


Florida State basketball coach Leonard Hamilton: "The police brutality that led to George Floyd's death is a sign of one of the biggest and toughest opponents we face in this country: social injustice. I grew up in Gastonia, North Carolina, during segregation. I lived through the sit-ins, used the colored bathroom, the colored water fountain. I wasn't able to eat in certain restaurants."
