COVID-19 and the Future of Sports

Sports has been sideswiped by COVID-19. Now, the pandemic looks likely to cancel American college football, as multiple conferences pull their teams for the fall. Sportswriter Dave Zirin and retired NFL defensive end and activist Michael Bennett co-authored the book "Things That Make White People Uncomfortable." They join Hari Sreenivasan to discuss Black Lives Matter and the future of sports.
