Right, all he wanted to do was beat them at their own game. By the way, it looks like Lanny Smith made history

he must be the first AA to have challenged Nike company.

Nice info, bro. Good to see guys like Lanny Smith taking his own initiative to impact the status quo.

Lanny Smith(photo below and article), 38, is the founder and CEO of "Actively Black", his own athletic company.

Lanny thought Nike and Adidas weren’t doing enough for Black people since they profited enormously off of Black talent, so he built a $30 million competitor. Today "Actively Black" is a multimillion-dollar brand. NBA star Stephen Curry was spotted wearing an Actively Black hoodie during a press conference shortly after former president Barack sported a watch the brand collaborated on.

Anyway, today, what shocked me the most is how Nike is "hating" on this brotha, they went "gangsta" on him. UNBELIEVABLE how this massive, globally recognized company in the sportswear industry, leading in athletic footwear and apparel, and how Nike generates significant revenue, employs a large workforce, is scared as we speak of this Black man's athletic company known as "Actively Black",..hahahahahaha, I'm still laughing out loud, wth? LOL
