I think Melo is proposing a bad thing.
Athletes don't have any sort of special insight into justice, they just have a larger platform. So they're not going to be adding or elucidating any extra truth or relevance, they're just going to be interjecting (at blast volume) and propagating their own individual misunderstandings, biases, and general ignorance. That's not helpful to anyone or anything at all (except to the puppetmasters), just like yelling your points louder in an argument doesn't help make your case any better. That type of strategy isn't aimed at uncovering truth or settling on 'the right way to do things', it's simply aimed at 'getting what I want'. Using that sort of strategy for serious grown-up issues is childish and dumb.
IMO, it's a bad thing when stupid, ignorant, uninformed, willfully misled people stand up on a soapbox and try to use their celebrity status to sway the minds of other people. The proper and respectable tool to use to sway minds is GOOD REASONING, and it's disgusting and disheartening to see dumb people trying to use other means. It's especially sad seeing other dumb people cheering them on and patting the back of their fellow morons for their 'brave' ramblings.
Under the direction of a very small handful of people who own the major media (and who view both blacks and whites as pawns), those outlets are cherry-picking stories in order to trick stupid people into believing certain narratives, and boy oh boy is it sure working well. Masses of morons are being played and whipped into a frenzy by some incredibly smart and manipulative people. The puppetmasters are rubbing their hands with glee and laughing aloud at how easily they've been able to trick and manipulate Melo and the people in the street. Their plan is to incite an artificial race-war between blacks and whites as a means of controlling and maintaining power; to them, blacks are dogs/slaves and whites are grunts/slaves, and rather than allow all those slaves of both colors to coalesce and take aim at the ruling elite, the master manipulators work to trick blacks and whites into fighting against each other. It's a power strategy as old as the mountains.
In a country of 300 million people, it would be just as easy to create false narratives about the police being ANYTHING: show just the clips of them mistreating redheads, and you could push the narrative that there's a big problem with police attacking redheads; show just the clips of them rescuing kittens, and you could push the narrative that they're just wasting all their time saving kittens; etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc. In reality, a cop is 18 times more likely to be shot by a black man, than an unarmed black man is to be shot by a cop, but the media falsely misrepresents reality in order to trick people and incite unrest. So shall we drop the false narratives and build a better world with our fellow man, or shall we keep being suckered by the lies and go down in flames? I vote for the former, but it seems I am losing the vote in a landslide.
There is a game afoot, and it is much grander and more serious than the story being fed to you by your puppet masters. Stop being stupid, stop being manipulated, and stop blaming and raging against your fellow slaves. Blacks who blame whites for their problems are being played, and whites who blame blacks for their problems are being played. Wake up, people.
