Social Justice and the Modern Athlete: Exploring the Role of
Athlete Activism in Social Change is an edited volume that
identifies and discusses athletes who have been at the forefront of
social movements to lead change in various areas of society,
including politics, gender equity, mental health, and nonviolent
protest. Contributors analyze how this activism speaks to the
impact that athletes can have on raising awareness and the power
they have to influence and rectify social injustices as they carry
the baton to advance efforts that result in a more equitable social
structure. This volume demonstrates the myriad ways in which
athletes have conducted their social work both in the real world
and the online sphere, addressing the spectrum of intersectional
marginalization that exists in our society based on gender, sexual
orientation, race, religion, ability, and class. Scholars of sports
studies, communication, sociology, political communication, and
gender studies will find this book of particular interest.
