Inside Midd Football Players’ Decision to Kneel During Anthem

Subject

The article entails the decision-making that Black football players, Ian Blow and Diego Meritus, underwent before kneeling for the first time during the national anthem at a football game on October 7th. Since then, they continued to do so and saw it as a way to protest racial injustice across the country and at Middlebury. At one home game against Trinity College, Blow and Meritus were called racial slurs.
