In this powerful book, critically acclaimed sports journalist and author Dave Zirin chronicles the Kaepernick effect for the first time, through a riveting collection of first-person stories (The Nation) from high school athletes and coaches, college stars and high-powered athletic directors, and professional athletes across many different sportsfrom Megan Rapinoe to Michael Bennett. In each case, he uncovers the fascinating explanations and motivations behind what became a mass political movement in sports.
