Riveting and inspiring first-person stories of how “taking a knee” triggered an awakening in sports, from the celebrated sportswriter In 2016, amid an epidemic of police shootings of African Americans, the celebrated NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick began a series of quiet protests on the field, refusing to stand during the U.S. national anthem. By “taking a knee,” Kaepernick bravely joined a long tradition of American athletes making powerful political statements. This time, however, Kaepernick’s simple act spread like wildfire throughout American society, becoming the preeminent symbol of resistance to America’s persistent racial inequality.
Critically acclaimed sports journalist and author of A People’s History of Sports in the United States, Dave Zirin chronicles “the Kaepernick effect” for the first time, through interviews with a broad cross-section of professional athletes across many different sports, college stars and high-powered athletic directors, and high school athletes and coaches. In each case, he uncovers the fascinating explanations and motivations behind a mass political movement in sports, through deeply personal and inspiring accounts of risk-taking, activism, and courage both on and off the field.
A book about the politics of sport, and the impact of sports on politics, The Kaepernick Effect is for anyone seeking to understand an essential dimension of the new movement for racial justice in America.

A 3rd string football crybaby who wouldn’t be where he is today without White Parents who adopted him and cared for him, while his real daddy and mommy could care less. His daddy split immediately after finding out he knocked up his mommy.
White People saved his life!
A real race baiting low life

LOL!!! Black man kneels and white men get SOOOO SCARED!! LOL
You white guys are just not tough at all, perpetually in fear and unable to function at all. It has been absolutely HILARIOUS watching your (lack of) culture get wiped out by just regular people doing ordinary things… LOL!!!! This is what happens when you can’t get laid…
It’s just great knowing that you guys can’t say this stuff outside because you’ll get beaten up BY OTHER WHITE PEOPLE! That’s right, you’ve lost and you know you’ve lost because OTHER WHITE PEOPLE hate you more than any of the rest of us do. People like Kaepernick have indeed changed the world, because tough white guys aren’t allowed to say anything anymore. It’s a great thing! Now we’re removing you from TV and movies, taking down statues and removing pictures of white men from everything, next we’ll remove white men from society completely!! LOL!!
White genocide now, white genocide forever!!

@apollo60
Hey apollo, I think you’ve mentioned before that you’re in advanced years? Over 60 at least, right? I seem to remember that.
Anyway, why don’t you tell us about how everything in your life when wrong, your family all left you and are out of contact and you spend all your time eating out of cans and whining on websites? It would be an enlightening story for some I think.
