Team Needs:

I need researchers who are able to tell the accurate and detailed story of Kaepernick’s career from his first protest to the present. Separately, I need researchers who are able to find and summarize as many articles that discuss 1) Kaepernick’s stated reasons for protesting, the reaction and participation from the sports world, and the reaction and reception by the broader public. If time, we will look more broadly at the ethical issues of peaceful protesting

Description:
