Sociology Question
Through further individual research and a written critical analysis, students will be asked to reflect on the impact of a specific athlete activist. Which style/approach was effective in advancing social justice in terms of their objectives? Your written assignment should differentiate activism styles (intentional or not) and their effectiveness. Be sure to trace activism “styles” to differing life experiences of the athlete you examine and the historical context of tactics employed. Reflect on the legacy of the athlete and how mass media portrayals of athletes (past and present) have shaped and continue to influence social acceptance of these causes. Consider prevailing/limiting ideologies and contextualize this.
