This must not become a binary choice, fans of the local football team pitted against survivors of sexual violence. Rosenberg_Mike on looking for a way forward for Browns fans with a conscience
to a degree that is disturbing and gross, and it raises the question: What should Browns fans with a conscience do now?
Ask Donisha Greene. She is the director of community engagement at the Cleveland Rape Crisis Center, showing survivors that there are people who believe and love them. She is also the wife and mother of two Clevelanders who love their football team. If we reduce Deshaun Watson to an argument, it’s easy to pick a side: Don’t cheer for him or his team. But a survivors’ advocate must have empathy above all else, and empathy is limited only by how much you can muster. Greene has enough of it for Browns fans who feel conflicted—and she knows that many of them feel conflicted.
Masir went to a preseason game and saw the worst of Browns fans: people making vulgar comments about the women, mocking the massage therapists who described Watson’s assaults of them. He was properly appalled. But he still joined them in the stands. “I can identify with some of the [Browns] fans and what they are feeling,” Greene says. “It’s heartbreaking. You want to continue to love your team, but at the same [time] it’s conflicting, because there is a cognitive dissonance you have to fight.”no-apologies-necessary press conference
