Sports have always been bigger than the game. In this episode, Pharlone Toussaint sits down with Tori Holloway and Trimaine Davis from Players Coalition to talk about how sports can drive social justice, youth development, and community change.
They break down why 70% of kids stop playing sports by age 13, how increasing costs and privatization are shutting young athletes out, and what it will take to make sports a right—not just a privilege. They also discuss how athletes have historically led social movements and why advocacy should be part of the playbook.
