Dr. John Carlos on Athletic Activism, Wayne Gillman on Equal Time Rule, & Tarence Bailey on Equality

Olympian Dr. John Carlos returns to our classroom Thursday morning, bringing firsthand insight into the power of athletic activism. As you may recall, Dr. Carlos and Tommie Smith made history at the 1968 Olympics with their courageous pro-Black Power protest. Now, Dr. Carlos will share how today’s activist-athletes are shaping the conversation and inspiring change. Our lineup is packed with incredible voices. Media Analyst Wayne Gillman will break down the Equal Time rule’s impact on the Texas primary, while Frederick Douglass’s relative Tarence Bailey will share his unique perspective on the ongoing struggle for equality.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
