Kendrick Perkins on Biography, Basketball, and Black History

On this week's episode of Edge of Sports, we speak to 14-year NBA veteran and basketball analyst Kendrick Perkins about his new book, The Education of Kendrick Perkins, co-written with Seth Rogoff. We talk about Beaumont, his upbringing, and some NBA basketball. We also speak about Tony Dungy and his history of bigotry covered in “kindness.”

We have a Just Stand Up award for Cyd Ziegler, who uncovered Tony Dungy’s speech at the March For Life protest in DC, and we have a Just Sit Down award for the right-wing trolls who are attacking anyone who dares tell the truth about Dungy's bigotry.
