The Philadelphia Union made changes to their jerseys for a match against NYCFC on Thursday as the club replaced players their last names with victims of police brutality.
The Union warmed up for Thursday's match sporting "Black Lives Matter" shirts. The club then took a team picture before taking off the warmup shirts to reveal their respective jerseys honoring the victims.
The Union is the latest club to show solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement. NWSL players on multiple teams kneeled before the national anthem ahead of the NWSL Challenge Cup opener on June 27, and a host of European clubs have shown support for Black Lives Matter in recent weeks.
