The Art of Play: Black Athletes in the 21st Century
From the time the doors were kicked down to allow Black athletes to compete professionally in the mid-20th century, these athletes have dominated the fields and courts. Their undeniable excellence has ushered in new generations of record-breakers, community builders, business leaders and activists.

Bomani Jones and Jemele Hill are two of the most exciting voices in sports entertainment. They’re not only masterful in their sports commentary but are equally masterful in their ability to call out racism and speak to the double standards of Black athletes in sports. The duo sits down to discuss the Art of Play.
