“In this case, [Nike], a white-run corporate entity, was starting to do business with African American athletes in an identity affiliation sales thing,” Affleck toldreporter Rebecca Keegan. “They were really taking value from what Michael Jordan represents and who he is.

“I’m telling a story that’s about a combination of things, and this is one aspect of it,” Affleck said. “I’m not going to omit it because to omit it would further compound the disrespect. What I am going to do is talk to people who understand it better than I do and who can help me contextualize it.
