On Thursday, the Dodgers released a powerful video as multiple players used their voice to speak out against racial injustice in America.

Clayton Kershaw, Alex Wood, Gavin Lux, Joc Pederson, A.J. Pollock, Justin Turner, Kiké Hernández, Ross Stripling, Walker Buehler and Cody Bellinger all spoke, sharing a message.

The players will also match funds raised from the “In This Together” special edition t-shirts benefitting the California Funders for Boys & Men of Color Southern California: Our Kids, Our Future Fund (CFBMoC).

“I’m proud of them. I’m proud to be a part of this,” manager Dave Roberts said on a conference call Thursday. “I think Clayton and some other guys spearheaded this. They’re very involved. They’ve been shaken. For them to not only talk the talk but walk the walk and lead by their actions is very commendable.”

The players can be seen wearing the shirts here.

If you would like to purchase this shirt, you can get them for a limited time at Dodgers.com/Together.

“There’s going to be a lot of teams that are going to be after us,” said Hernández. “The media keeps hyping us up. We’re a very good team and everybody’s going to want to beat the Dodgers, so, we are very aware that when teams play us, their talent’s going to be elevated, every single game is going to be a meaningful game. It’s also going to make the season very exciting.”
