Has Kobe Bryant found one of his callings after basketball?
According to Dave Zirin — Bryant did some post ESPY activism — reportedly meeting with reps from the Black Lives Matter movement, the LAPD, some actors and several activist in L.A.

It is a fascinating step for @kobebryant to be at the heart of a meeting like this. ALSO many athletes were in the room as well.

I’m very interested in learning if Bryant did in fact put together this meeting, and if so, what exactly was the tipping point for the recently retired future Hall of Famer.
Bryant is two-years removed from having activist Majee Ali organizing a boycott of all his products over comments he made after Trayvon Martin was murdered.
“Just because I’m supposed to. Just because I’m an African-American.”
