We’re all human beings,” Toscano-Anderson said in a video that the Warriors released. “We’re all here for the same purpose. Not just for black people. Right now, it’s about black people. But for humanity, there are people all over the world being oppressed. We’re just trying to take a step in the right direction and start something.”
