Nation Magazine Uses Super Bowl to Complain about Racial Inequality
30th January 2019
Attempting to squeeze their way in front of the glaring spotlight that is the Super Bowl this weekend will be numerous social justice protesters. The Nation magazine reports that in Atlanta this weekend, the points of protest will surround racial inequalities, voter suppression and income inequality in Georgia.
There will also be calls for boycotting the NFL for, as The Nation’s Dave Zirin says, brazen collusion against quarterback and anti-police-brutality campaigner Colin Kaepernick.
The discredited Southern Poverty Law Center, along with the Atlanta NAACP, the Southern Christian Leadership Conference and the Georgia Alliance for Social Justice will protest. So will the Alliance for Black Lives, an organization that “fights the three evils of society: racism, poverty, and militarism.” This is becoming the norm.
