Cannonball with Wesley Morris

Straws

Listen Later

California’s new legislation allowing college athletes to make money off endorsements. One step forward. The backlash against victims who came forward in the wake of #MeToo. Two steps back. Does big, sustainable change have to feel like grasping at straws?

Discussed this week:

  • “California Tells the N.C.A.A. to Share, and It Pitches a Fit.” (Michael Powell, The New York Times, Oct. 4, 2019)
  • “The Toll of Me Too.” (Rebecca Traister, The Cut, Sept. 30, 2019)
