2020 has been probably the most turbulent year I’ve experienced in my 25 years of life. While we were in the middle of a global pandemic, Derek Chauvin callously murdered George Floyd while three other police officers did nothing to stop him in Minneapolis, setting off a wave of protests against the racial injustices experienced by black people in the United States of America.

College football has become another front in this war against tyranny thanks to the bravery of several athletes being willing to speak out and use their platform. Several individuals have called out their coaches or community, from football players like Marvin Wilson at Florida State, to Kellen Mond here at Texas A&M, to most recently Chuba Hubbard at Oklahoma State.
