随着「佛洛伊德之死」引发美国一波黑人人权示威运动，多位NBA球员也跳出来为此发声。然而，近日一位前七六人啦啦队成员柯尔蔓（Yahne Coleman）自爆，她在担任啦啦队期间遭到队友、教练严重的种族歧视、霸凌，对此七六人球团表示正针对此事进行调查。
「黑人的命也是命」议题在全美发酵，这让现以转职成为模特儿的柯尔蔓，选择在此时揭露自己过去在七六人啦啦队遭到霸凌的往事，而她也在个人社群媒体上公开遭到队友欺侮的影片。柯尔蔓表示「我很害怕公开这一切，因为我遭到前七六人啦啦队队友、教练的种族歧视」，她提到自己曾向球团高层、教练求助，但始终没有获得回应。

柯尔蔓直言过去在做赛前准备时，队友会故意把她的物品丢到厕所，并且会在公开群组里取笑她的照片，甚至会拍摄影片威胁要伤害她。由于要保住工作，因此柯尔蔓忍受这些侮辱3年之久，直到第4年啦啦队试镜前一晚，她接到队友打电话来说「你的黑屁股不会再回来了」，没想到隔天试镜后她的啦啦队生涯就此中断。
尽管柯尔蔓离开了啦啦队，却仍遭到前队友的骚扰，她表示前队友仍会传来影片，并呛她是来自贫民窟，并要胁「不管未来到她哪里工作，都会将她给找出来，并将她遭到解雇的原因说给新老板听」。最后柯尔蔓无奈的表示，就因为她是「黑人」，就要受到这些欺凌。
据了解，柯尔蔓是在2015年离开七六人啦啦队，而七六人球团在看到柯尔蔓的经历后，也立即对外发表声明，表示「我们看到前啦啦队成员在社群上的发文后，里头充满了种族歧视的问题」，并直言会针对此事件进行彻底调查。
Thank you @treysongz , @hollywoodunlocked and you amazing people showing me support. I was scared to release this because I was racially bullied and threatened by my 76ers NBA teammates and former Teammates. I went to my coach Dayna Haftez and the Sixers organization crying out for help so many times. I sent the video above of me being racially profiled, bullied and threatened to my coach Dayna Haftez, Debbie Alpalucci, Lara Price the 76ers Senior Vice President of Business and HR seeking help. Nothing was done. They would move my things into the bathroom stall for me to get ready for games. They would make fun of my pictures in a group chat, talking about my black features and send me videos threatening my safety. I did not want them to run me away from a dream I always wanted to accomplish so I tried my hardest to remain strong through it all. I went through this for 3 years. When I auditioned for my 4th year this group of girls called me the night before on the phone saying “your BLACK ass will not be coming back”. I still went to the tryouts and unfortunately that was the end of my 76ers dance team career. It didn’t stop there. They proceeded to harass me by calling and leaving hateful racial videos saying they would come to the slums of West Philly Ghetto and physically harm me. I’m not from the ghetto and never lived in the ghetto but because I’m black they decided to say this laughing and giggling. They went around asking about me, finding out where I worked and called my employment saying things to get me fired. I would hate for this group of women who are still working and connected to the @sixers @philadelphiaflyers to hurt another young talented black girl. Sadly, I let this racial bullying incident from this group of women deter me from my dancing career. The women who racially bullied me - Annie Weiss aka Annie Fuhrman @ mommycanyou @ projectstillhuman, Nicole Vernile Current Captain @76ersent , Kerri McDonald Current Dance Coach 76ers, Danielle Dematteo @philadelphiaflyers Dance Coach, Malinda Ruth , Erica Hammel , Val Dematteo , Julie Kaskiw, Lauren Schwer, Krystal Almora aka Krystal Gregorio @KrystalAlmora hashtag_kids , Coach Dayna Hafetz
