In this latest episode, Matthew and Jonah discuss the NFL's conference championship games. They're then joined by Dr. Robert Greene II (@robgreeneII) to discuss the late Hank Aaron's astonishing yet somehow overlooked career, the whitewashing of Aaron as a Black man and icon, and the complexities of his life in and out of baseball. The pod closes with a look back at the death of Kobe Bryant and what his life and passing signify to different people, both in and out of sports.
Dr. Robert Greene II is a professor of history at Claflin University, lead associate editor of the award-winning Black Perspectives blog and book review editor for the Society of U.S. Intellectual Historians.
