- Summary
- In Griner, noted political analyst Earl Ofari Hutchinson goes beneath the surface in her case. He examines the issues of race, gender, celebrity, the disparities in men's and women's pro sports, politics, and war that are deeply embedded in the Griner saga. Hutchinson places her arrest against the backdrop of the escalation in tensions between Russia and the U.S. over Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Hutchinson asks did that make her a political pawn in the jockeying between the two countries over the war as many charged? Griner is a fast, paced, laser look at how one pro basketball player, became for the moment, much more than just a basketball player.
