Michael Jordan has opened his pockets lately!
On this blog a couple of weeks ago, I posted about major contributions Jordan made to social justice issues. Despite years of criticism and silence, Jordan has been engaging in major philanthropic efforts to aid the African-American community in recent weeks. This time around, Jordan has donated $5 million to assist the Smithsonian's National Museum of African-American History and Culture in Washington, D.C. In recognition of Jordan's gift, the sports gallery in the new museum, slated to open in September 2016, will be named after Michael Jordan. Kudos to Jordan for stepping up to the plate to meaningful causes lately! Here's a link to the story:
