This week, after a cool Gold Star and a not-so-cool Detention, Mr. Parker Ainsworth is joined by Dave Zirin of The Nation. Mr. Zirin sits down for a writer’s workshop to look at his latest book, The Kaepernick Effect, Taking a Knee, Changing the World. The two look at the creation of the book, Kaepernick’s impact on the youth, what makes activism, and more!

You can find Dave Zirin’s book at your nearest bookstore, or order it here: https://www.amazon.com/s?k=9781620976753&tag=thenewpress-20
