From the Toledo Blue Stockings Manager Charlie Morton’s decision in the late 180

From the Toledo Blue Stockings Manager Charlie Morton’s decision in the late 1800’s to play Moses Walker, to the 2020 Milwaukee Bucks protest of the shooting of Jacob Blake, professional athletes have continually exercised their right to peaceful protest. As a matter of fact, peaceful protest is the cornerstone of US democracy.
Your assignment is to profile an athlete or team that used their platform to protest social injustice. In addition, I’d like to know whether you believe your athlete or team is or will be on the “right side” or “wrong side of history”. For example, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell recently apologized for the league’s treatment of players and not listening more closely to Colin Kaepernick and other players’ protest over social injustice. On the other hand, Hitler’s propaganda of an Aryan “master race” backfired on him when German athlete Carl Ludwig “Lutz” Long gave Jesse Owens technical advice that helped Owens win the long jump in the 1936 Berlin Olympics (Long won the silver).
Please use references to back up the facts of your profile (author and date) and address your thoughts on “the right or wrong side of history” choice in a minimum of three FULL pages, double spaced.
