NAACP, Congressional Black Caucus Boycott Southern Universities

Out of Bounds Campaign Targets Southern Universities: NAACP and Congressional Black Caucus urge boycott of major public university athletic programs in seven Southern states due to voting rights restrictions. Athletes and fans are encouraged to withhold support to pressure states into protecting Black political representation. The campaign coincides with the closed transfer portal and targets high school recruits. The Congressional Black Caucus links this issue to the SCORE Act, a bill concerning college athlete payments, and threatens to oppose it unless athletic leagues take a stand against redistricting efforts. The SCORE Act was recently pulled from a House committees schedule after the caucus announced their opposition. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
