It’s time to make Jackie Robinson proud

Major League Baseball celebrates a pandemic-delayed Jackie Robinson day, the NBA gets back to work following the Jacob Blake strikes, and protestors march on Washington—once again.

But first, here’s your athletic week in review, in Haiku.

Take me out of the 
ball game, I am leaving the
ice. Hang on to your

peanuts and homemade 
snacks, we’re not sure when
we’ll ever be back

Sports are also a 
platform, if we don’t speak
it’s our shame. Really.

It is. If we don’t
speak, strike, protest, lobby, march
write, boycott, weigh in

Jackie Robinson
Day will be just another
swing and a big miss.

Get in the game — any game! —this weekend, if you can.
