Not Just a Game

Cover art is by Amen Gashaw and Sophia Scott.

Jaden, Matthew, and Jack discuss politics in sports. Was it a mistake to let Qatar host the FIFA World Cup? Did Wimbledon make the right call in banning the participation of Russians, including star players Daniil Medvedev and Andrey Rublev? Does activism belong in sports, and can it succeed? Are sports a force for unity and social progress, or division and conflict?
