The tie caused a reporter to ask a question, which Randy Moss responded to. So the people who aren't aware were made aware. So yeah, wearing a tie did do something. It's also a respectful thing to do, not to make your entire Hall of Fame speech about something unrelated, but at the same time to have something symbolic there for someone to ask about later. The tie got coverage, I'd say it created a lot of awareness.
Haha. If people weren't aware from the Ferguson riots, blm, and the Trump presidency, kapernick, etc they are never going to be and certainly a single answer about a tie is not going to do it.
Everyone is aware of police violence against blacks. Raising awareness seems to be a code word for being righteous but not doing anything.

It's called raising awareness.
You know, just because you have a dick, doesn't mean you need to be a dick.
Raising awareness is only important if it's something that people aren't aware of. Considering the major focus of the news involving the NFL last year was about police violence protests, I'd say everyone is aware of they are never going to be.
But I don't think wearing a tie does anything. This is just the real life version of changing your Facebook profile to fight cancer. Ie. Doing nothing.
