Sportsstjerner med appel

Husker du de knyttede næver fra Tommie Smith og John Carlos under OL i 1968? En ikonisk markering af afro-amerikaneres selvbevidsthed og kamp for lige borgerrettigheder. Helt så langt kom det ikke, da fire af verdens bedste basketballspillere, LeBron James, Chris Paul, Carmelo Anthony og Dwayne Wade, indtog scenen til 2016 ESPY Award-showet og kom med en sjældent set politisk opsang: “Systemet er brudt sammen.

Sport er politik.
