The WNBA has found itself in the midst of a heated debate after disqualifying two players for kneeling during the national anthem. The players, who used the moment to protest social injustices, were removed from the game for violating league protocols.
This decision has drawn mixed reactions, with some applauding the league for upholding tradition and others accusing it of stifling free expression.
The incident has also drawn attention from political figures, with opinions split along party lines. As the WNBA navigates this controversy, the broader question of how sports leagues should handle activism remains unresolved. For now, the disqualified players have become symbols of a larger struggle for social justice in America.
