Episode description

Clinton Yates (The Undefeated) joins Rhea to talk about why MLB's decision to recognize the records and statistics from the Negro Leagues is the problem not the solution, and why words like "recognize" and "elevate" reflect the same white supremacist vision of the sport that segregated professional baseball in the first place.
