Mark Cuban should be applauded for his decision to stop playing the national anthem.
The Dallas Mavericks made headlines in early February when The Athletic reported that the team hadn’t played the national anthem at any of its home games this season.
The NBA’s rulebook states that players must stand during the anthem, but commissioner Adam Silver relaxed this rule last year as most players kneeled during the anthem in support of the Black Lives Matter movement. In a December press conference, Silver said that the issue “calls for real engagement, rather than rule enforcement.”

In 2018, Kyrsten Sinema became the first openly bisexual person elected to the United States Senate. Sinema is also Arizona’s first elected female senator and its first Democratic senator since 1995. A result of 2018 midterms’ so-called LGBTQ wave or “rainbow wave,” Sinema’s election was hailed a victory for bisexual people: “To have out bisexual officials be elected to public office signifies that we have made progress in our understanding and acceptance of bisexual people,” bisexual advocate and editor of Bi Women Quarterly Robyn Ochs told NBC News. “Our cultural mainstream understanding and acceptance of lesbian and gay people has progressed much more than our understanding of bi and trans people, and this election cycle has been really important.”
