We are joined by dave ziron, sports editor at the nation and host of edge of sports podcast. Dave writes new books faster than the ultimate warrior, sprints down the aisle, knocks them off at a clip that is truly amazing. In this episode he talks about his latest book, the capernic effect, taking a knee, changing the world out and owt from new press. We are all about the power of positivity here.
In this recording of a Live Interview for Patrons from 9/22, we speak with The Nation sports editor Dave Zirin about his new book, The Kaepernick Effect, and how a series of protests in youth sports, namely among black youth, set off firestorms and backlash in dozens of small towns throughout the country. And what the "leave politics out of sports" ethos says about the evergreen importance of racial disciplining in sports media.
