"Anderson excels at showing how historical events led to Colin Kaepernick’s 'Kneel Heard 'Round the World,' and he offers a perceptive analysis of the sparks that ignited the Black Lives Matter movement and how it has prompted the 'revitalization of athlete activism.'"
“There are always repercussions for calling out the injustices of society. ‘The Black Athlete Revolt’ is an analysis and celebration of this type of athlete activist.”
"Anderson makes a persuasive case that sports have a 'legitimate power to create substantial social change.' Meticulous and enlightening, this scores."
"Engaging, thoughtful, and hopeful in its approach, author Shaun M. Anderson’s “The Black Athlete Revolt” is a must-read nonfiction book on athletics, activism, and the need for equality and justice for all people."
