Episode 05 Alex F‪.‬ The High Yellow Podcast

    • Society & Culture

I had a chat with Alex Flanagan, whom you may know via her national profile as a sports reporter covering the NFL, College Football, The Olympics and several others. We discuss her feelings about speaking out publicly on matters of social, racial and gender equality and what doing so means to her. I found her very open and insightful and appreciated her sharing her journey to understanding the plight of black Americans and other disenfranchised groups. I also learned that she was the NFL sideline reporter during the Chargers v. 49er game when Colin Kaepernick first kneeled in protest of police brutality and some of the backstory of how he came to kneel. Hope you learn something like I did. Thanks for listening.
