Daniel Loroña and Ajamu Baraka join Edge of Sports to discuss practicing dissent in the face of the upcoming World Cup, and we have a bonus movie conversation.
Where sports and politics collide, hosted by Nation magazine Sports Editor Dave Zirin
This week, we speak to Ajamu Baraka of the Black Alliance for Peace and Daniel Loroña of Amnesty International about why they are organizing against the 2026 World Cup's presence in the United States. And then, just in time for Easter, a cinematic Easter egg as film savant Arya Shirazi and I talk about two forgotten films of our youth.
