The MLB moving the All-Star Game out of Georgia and the remarkable ability for sports to enact social change

In this debut episode of the EMPIRE Sports SHOW, we take a look at the MLB moving the All-Star Game out of Georgia after that state passed a bill that'll suppress the vote of minority voters in future elections. And in light of this, we review sport's remarkable ability to enact social change and why the "stick to sports" mantra is just another attempt by the right and far-right to mitigate progress towards a more egalitarian society.
