Ep. 46 - Malcolm X vs Black Athletes

I was listening to Clay Travis' Outkick radio show on Tuesday and he asked Jason Whitlock a fascinating question. How would Malcolm X feel about the athletes' political demonstrations? Jason responded to the question and gave a pretty good answer but I thought the question needed a deep dive analysis so I decided to do it. I pick up where Jason Whitlock left off telling you why Malcolm wouldn't have a favorable view of today's athletes.
