Episode description

Growing up, the athlete was portrayed as shallow, unintelligent, and unconcerned with the affairs of the world. This has never been the case with Black athletes, so why are white sports fans continually surprised? We talk to Donnovan Bennett from Sportsnet about the implications and stakes surrounding the activist athlete.

Guest: Donnovan Bennet, Sportsnet Host, Writer
