Abstract

Description

LeBron James, Colin Kaepernick, and a growing number of professional men and women athletes are speaking out about racial disparities. Why is this happening and what is the significance? Are American athletes returning to the social awareness of Muhammad Ali and the 1968 Olympic protests? Sports columnist Larry Fitzgerald Sr. and Professor Samuel Freeman join in a conversation moderated by Professor Doug Hartmann.
