The Black Athlete Revolt

We are excited to be joined by Dr Shaun M. Anderson, Ph.D. to talk about his new book The Black Athlete Revolt: The Sport Justice Movement in the Age of #Blacklivesmatter. But before we jump into the interview we have to discuss the huge loss for Mobile, AL in the murder of Montraze Slater AKA Slatron the Don, Mr Check N himself. The brothers share personal stories of Slate and ask the community to continue to be the light that he was. Dr Anderson explains why he decided to write the book and the things that inspired his career journey. We discuss why sports and politics are traditionally thought to not mix. We get Dr Andersons thoughts on if there will ever be another Muhammed Ali and why people tell athletes to shut up and dribble. We celebrate the NIL deals that Angel Reese is receiving and discuss whether that will be a bigger shift in student athletes staying in school longer rather than going pro. We close discussing two of the Tennessee three being expelled from state Congress. Guess what was different in the one person that wasn't expelled! Sen Tim Scott announced his presidential exploratory committee and Razi is surprised. Razi is not happy with the department of justice since they declined to charge anyone in the murder of Shanquella Robinson. But he is happy about HBO Max rebooting Harry Potter as a series. Ferg closes with a shout out to the WNBA draft and a challenge for them to be better! Enjoy everyone!!
