Pro Football and the Proliferation of Protest: Anthem Posture in a Divided America

This book examines the take-a-knee protests, incorporating analysis of media coverage, impact on attitudes and behaviors, and racial, religious, gendered, and political perspectives. The analysis allows readers to recognize both positive and negative prejudice and to proscribe possible solutions for political divisiveness.
