Redspin Sports looks at the connections between the U.S. sports industry & the political, social & economic forces that sustain U.S. imperialism, both at home and abroad.

We examine the history of activist athletes and this generation's reemergence of athlete activism, the history of American football through a critical class struggle lens, and the politics & labor dynamics that characterize the modern pro sports leagues. Highlighting the connections between billionaire team owners, the permanent war state, real estate gentrifiers and slum lords, private prisons, education privatization, police militarization & much more; all of which are critical to fully understanding the social and political forces that define our time.

Minor League Baseball Players Exploited By MLB and Investors

In this segment of By Any Means Necessary, It’s FRIDAY so it’s time for another edition of our new weekly segment “The Red Spin Report,” where we discuss sports, politics and struggle with Nate Wallace, co-host of Red Spin Sports to discuss the severe exploitation of the athletic labor of Minor League Baseball players by Major League Baseball, the sickening new lottery system that can further exploit the destitution of Minor League players, and Brett Favre’s recent comments on preventing the development of CTE in children.

Recorded and aired on Friday, August 20th, 2021 in Washington, DC.
