Boston Red Sox owner John Henry decided to celebrate his team’s second World Series win in the last 4 years by raising a gloved black fist to the sky. It was a brazen move by the rebellious owner, and Red Sox nation is not exceptionally pleased. “Hey, it’s great that he’s built a winner here in Boston,” said Sox fan Davey O’Brien, “But does he have to remind everyone that he is a Marcus Garvey disciple who believes in black nationalism? On today of all days?” Added Brian O’Davies of nearby Worcester, “He looked like a nerdy white John Carlos out there. We’ve come a long ways since the 1968 Olympics, and his black power salute was not wicked awesome.”
