Jemele Hill and Cari Champion on Racism (and Liberation) in Sports

Sports are beautiful and transformative. Also racist and corrupt! This week, with the Olympics in full swing, host Brittany Packnett Cunningham is joined by journalists Jemele Hill and Cari Champion. They talk about what athletes are going through in China, what it means to represent “America”—and here at home, about discrimination in the NFL and the “reckoning” they see coming for pro sports generally. Plus, Brittany unpacks this week’s UN-TRENDING news; and an announcement about our presence on Spotify.
