The OU football team locked arms in a march from Gaylord Family - Oklahoma Memorial Stadium to the Unity Garden on the campus' South Oval Friday in a peaceful protest against racial injustice. Following comments from head coach Lincoln Riley, the Sooners observed a 57-second moment of silence -- commemorating the 57th anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I have a dream" speech in Washington.
