Athletes should be making political stands, especially the well known ones. I believe they are looked at as powerful people in our country and many people look up to them. They are normal people like anyone else in our country, but their lives are expressed more through the media then any other person. People grow up having their favorite sports team and player and by having that sports star express their feelings could help the young and old stand up for what they believe in. There may be times when an athlete shouldn't speak up because it is disrespecting someone that has higher importance than themselves, but for the most part athletes are looked at as leaders in this country so their voice should be heard.
