Taking a Knee: Sports and Activism

When Colin Kaepernick made a stand during the national anthem he joined a long line of sports figures that have protested racism through their gestures and actions. Join Bleacher Reportcontributor Rembert Browne and The Nation’s Dave Zirin for a conversation about the platform these athletes have, and the swirling debate around their actions.
