Full Description
An inspiring graphic memoir from celebrated athlete and
activist Colin Kaepernick.
High school star athlete Colin Kaepernick is at a crossroads in
life. Heavily scouted by colleges and Major League Baseball (MLB)
as a baseball pitcher, he has a bright future ahead of him. Everyone
from his parents to his teachers and coaches are in agreement
on his future.
Colin feels differently.
Colin isn't excited about baseball. In the words of five-time
all-star MLB player Adam Jones, 'Baseball is a white man's game.'
Colin looks up to athletes like Allen Iverson: talented, hyper-competitive,
unapologetically Black, and dominating their sports while
staying true to themselves.
College football looks a lot more fun than sleeping on hotel room
floors in the minor leagues of baseball. But Colin doesn't have
a single offer to play football. Yet.
Explores the story of how a young change-maker learned to find
himself and never compromise
