"When we came together on that call, it was the most hopeful thing in one of the darkest weeks of my entire life. Morrow said the conversations centered on whether players felt supported by the league. The players concluded it would be best to form an organisation. There were three goals, Morrow said: To give black players a voice in the league; to encourage black representation in the players' association and higher levels of MLS; and to help local communities. “We’ve already come to the table with Major League Soccer and had conversations with them about things that we’d like to see changed,"

"When we came together on that call, it was the most hopeful thing in one of the darkest weeks of my entire life.

The coalition is the result of an Instagram group formed after the death of George Floyd at the hands of Minneapolis police, which spawned a wave of nationwide protests against racism and policy brutality. Started by Toronto FC defender Justin Morrow, the group grew to some 70 MLS players, who decided to act and the Black Players Coalition of MLS was born.
