J.T. Brown is done raising his fist, but he's far from finished trying to affect change.
On Wednesday, the Tampa Bay Lightning forward provided an update on his efforts in the community since silently protesting during "The Star-Spangled Banner" earlier this month:
Brown became the first NHL player to protest inequality and racial injustice this season when he stood with his fist raised during the singing of the anthem before the Lightning played the Panthers on Oct. 7.
He revealed the next day that he'd already started receiving death threats and racial slurs since making the silent statement that he defended postgame as the right decision, adding at the time that he hoped more conversation on the issues would take place.
