Roundtable: Is sport the right platform for protest?
When someone refuses to stand during their national anthem is it a legitimate protest or plain insulting? American footballers are using the pitch to protest against racial inequality. Is it the place to deliver a message?
It started as one player's protest during the national anthem, and what is now called 'Taking the Knee'; has overtaken the game of American football -- and some say, the issue itself. As more and NFL players follow Colin Kaepernic's lead, others are backing Donald Trump, insisting it's offensive to the US constitution
At the Roundtable was Republican House representative, James Earl White; NFL commentator and writer, Mike Carlson; Equalities campaigner Rashid Nix; And former NBA player, John Amaechi.
Roundtable is a discussion programme with an edge. Broadcast out of London and presented by
David Foster, it's about bringing people to the table, listening to every opinion, and analysing every point of view. From fierce debate to reflective thinking, Roundtable discussions offer a different perspective on the issues that matter to you. Watch it every weekday at 15:30 GMT on TRT World.
