This is a side that the media rarely sees of Marshawn Lynch, but the star running back truly cares about the people in his community.
TMZ found video footage from last year — of ‘Beastmode’ addressing a crowd at a concert at the New Parish in Oakland. The message was powerful and consistent — “Stop all the killing.”
Beast Mode tells the crowd he’s extremely proud to “represent where I’m from on the national mother f**king stage” … but says, “I’ve been losing too many of ya’ll.”
Marshawn is obviously referring to the fact that Oakland is consistently ranked among the most dangerous cities in the country … and had the 2nd highest rate of violent crime in 2014.
“We need to be here for each other,” Lynch said … who also explained why it’s IMPERATIVE that the young people hear his message.
