Ep 05: The Politics of Worth - Featuring Terri Carmichael Jackson

Jemele uses this week’s “The Filibuster” to give a state of the union on player unions. Jemele is later joined by WNBPA Executive Director Terri Carmichael Jackson, who explains why WNBA players opted out of their current collective bargaining agreement. Terri also reflects on the 2024 WNBA season and the evolution of women's sports being seen as a viable business. She also touches on her son, Memphis Grizzlies star Jaren Jackson Jr., following her in union footsteps and potential future in politics. Lastly, Jemele taps in Louisianan activist Gary Chambers Jr. to answer a listener question about poor voter turnout in his state. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
