About the Course

Sports have become an ever-present reflection of American culture, and an important symbol of the divisions and alliances in our society.
Sports and political change walk hand in hand in America. The way that athletes and institutions deal with questions of race, economic

Thank you 1968 activist's mentioned in this course and all who continue to contribute to fighting for equal justice. Thank you Morehouse. Thank you Chris Webber, your interviews were great I look forward to you continuing with more! I want to announce the profound impact that the course on activism in sports and culture by Morehouse has had on understanding in culture. This course delves deep into the intersection of sports, culture, and activism, providing invaluable insights into the historical and contemporary struggles for equality and justice. The diverse perspectives offered in this course, both from Morehouse and from students like myself, have enriched my learning experience immensely. It's not just a course; it's a transformative journey that challenges preconceptions, fosters empathy, and inspires action. I with all my heart believe that this course should be mandatory in academic curricula. Its relevance extends far beyond the realm of sports and culture; it's about understanding the complexities of our society, confronting systemic injustices, and striving towards a more equitable future. In my opinion, it stands as one of the finest educational offerings across all platforms, and I am deeply grateful for the opportunity to engage with such important material. Thank you, Jacob Russell Boyce
