Ray Allen on athletes taking action over police violence

The shooting of Jacob Blake by police in Kenosha, Wisconsin, has sparked public outrage in that city and beyond. Athletes from the NBA, the WNBA, Major League Baseball and Major League Soccer refused to play Wednesday night, and nearly a dozen games were canceled. The boycotts are arguably the strongest action players have taken on a social issue. John Yang talks to retired NBA player Ray Allen.
