Will College Football Players Lead the Resistance? Someone Needs to Get Angry Enough to Act
DL Hughley, Eddie Glaude and Ryan Clark are calling for college football players to de-commit from SEC schools and switch to colleges in states with fair voting rights. Mark and Brock discuss the viability of getting young kids to sacrifice life changing money to make a statement. Is it their responsibility? Haven't civil rights movements always been led by young people. It is complex as the owner to labor dynamic in America is very white against black. The topic highlights the lack of breakout leadership in the Resistance which coupled with a shortage of true anger has left the counter to MAGA lacking. White America is still too complacent as rights are taken away. Mark believes Black America is ready to mobilize against the voter suppression, but not ready for street protests. The push for athletes to take a leading role is hopeful but may not be realistic.
