ESPN Launches New Show 'Racism in Sports’ Despite Disney Pledge to limit wokeness
ESPN is launching a new show to explore “racism” in sports, even though the network’s owner, Disney, has pledged to tone down its hard drive to the far left in the culture wars. The new series is headed by radical activist Ibram X. Kendi and will be titled Skin In The Game, according to Fox News.
The ESPN+ series “delves into and challenges racism in the sports world and will reveal how pervasive racism is in sports while challenging the thoughts and systems of various governing bodies,” the network claimed.“I hope that people are able, through the series, not just to see their favorite athletes, but also see the lingering challenges of racism in sports and society,” Kendi told Axios in an interview published on Oct. 2.
“There are ways in which we all understand the ways in which we understand racism is operating, and there are ways in which we don’t,” he added. The new series comes more than a month after Disney CEO Bob Iger promised to begin pulling back the radical leftism that his entertainment giant has been perpetrating over the last decade.
During a meeting with the company’s investors, Iger promised that Disney would “quiet the noise” in its drive to engage in the culture wars. But teaming with Kendi seems to be the opposite of any “quieting” of Disney’s far-left political agenda. Kendi is the same radical race-baiter whose supposed “Center for Antiracist Research” has come under investigation for a series of misdeeds. Kendi has been forced to lay off more than half the staff of his woke organization based at Boston University after being accused of organizational dysfunction and squandering $43 million in donations.

Do people still watch this channel? I remember a time when all it showed was sports and it brought us all together. Now, it just exists to divide us...

I doubt ESPN will be questioning NBA players on why they support China and China's use of slave labor to make basketball goods. Congress just sent a letter to the NBA on this issue though. As the article brings up, the NBA is most likely going to ignore Congresses concern about the NBA supporting slave labor.
The NBA won't just quit profiting off of China's genocide and slave labor

What is the issue, a show airs,compared to many shows.( ESPN+ series)
I guess you want zero shows in order to watch the channels?
Plus many shows are produced in advance, waay in advance, so do you scrap months of filming/projects or just air the show?
It is a no brainer and they have been doing lots of documentary type shows lately.
I jut watched 1 on Venezuelan and Dominican baseball players and their journey to the mlb in the USA.
"You can get an ESPN+ subscription for $9.99 per month"

There is an unspoken thing, we are iron brothers and sisters, we are to support each other and...It is our duty to support our brothers and sisters in the iron game!

So are they finally going to address the racial disparity in track and the NBA?
"To be a warrior is not a simple matter of wishing to be one. It is rather an endless struggle that will go on to the very last moment of our lives. Nobody is born a warrior, in exactly the same way that nobody is born an average man. We make ourselves into one or the other."-- Carlos Castaneda

So Henry Rogers (Ibram X Kendi) found another grift after taking tens of millions in donations and producing nothing with it. lol. Decades of tossing around white guilt has brought us to this point. Grifters gonna grift. The upsetting part is a huge company falling for it and rewarding it. It might be time to investigate if Mr. Rogers has taken his donations to spend on his relatives like BLM founders did.
Yeah Buddyyy! Light weight! Light weight baby!!!!
