When Fighting Racism, Do Sports Matter?

This week we talk to Ian Kennedy author of the new book On Account of Darkness: Shining a Light on Race and Sport. We also speak to Michael Lee of the Washington Post about the reaction by the NBA to the police murder of Tyre Nichols. 

We also have ‘Just Stand Up’ and 'Just Sit Down’ award to everyone lifting up their voice to protest the police murder of Tyre Nichols, and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass for her continuation of politics-as-usual in the City of Angels.
