Dave Zirin: The Super Bowl and Two Souls in Sports
February 5, 2011"Just as we would argue about cinema or theater or dance, progressives sometimes only see the bad and not the good," in sports, says Nation sports columnist and Edge of Sports radio host Dave Zirin. Just in time for the Super Bowl, Dave has a new documentary out, Not Just a Game: Power, Politics & American Sports, based on his book A People's History of Sports in the United States.Asmaa Mahfouz, Dave Zirin, We Women Warriors & Bradley Manning
February 4, 2011"As long as you say there is no hope, then there will be no hope, but if you go down and take a stance, then there will be hope." Those are the words of Asmaa Mahfouz, one of the founders of the April 6 Youth Movement in Egypt, who took to the Internet to spread her message in the days leading up to the protests, which have spread across her country and led to President Mubarak announcing he will not run for reelection. As the protesters continue their fight to get Mubarak out sooner rather than later, we bring you Asmaa's words to remember how all of this got started.
