The athletic field has long been a site for protests against racism, hosting key events in the fight for equality, such as legendary African American baseball player Jackie Robinson's 1947 induction into the MLB. Recent protests have expanded to issues like sexism, LGBT rights, and immigration, and have made use of social media and other modern developments. This volume examines the controversies surrounding athlete activism as well as its place in history and contemporary politics." 521 $a Grade 9-12. 650 0 $a Sports $x Political aspects $z United States. $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Professional athletes $x Political activity $z United States $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Racism in sports $z United States. $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Discrimination in sports $z United States $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Social media in sports $z United States $v Juvenile literature. 653 $a Athlete activism 700 1 $a Wiener, Gary. $e editor. 830 0 $a At issue. $p Sports. 941 $a 3 952 $l USUX851 $d 20230503011520.0 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20200319010315.0 952 $l GAAX314 $d 20200228010101.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=FAA6EC6659F711EAB0F0C54897128E48 994 $a Z0 $b HL6Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
