Another amazing article by David Zirin (@edgeofsports), Sports Editor of The Nation.

He always knows how to give the back story of any popular (by the status quo of society) event like the Olympics, that even in sports there are human rights issues, prejudices, racism, inequality, poverty and so on.

He will tell you straight up what is wrong with that picture and how it is we can educate ourselves becoming more aware of what is around us and what we can do to change it for the better. This is an absolute must read!
