Otito is a Junior defensive lineman at UCLA, U20 USTF national champion in shot put, and bronze medal winner in the discus. He is also one of the organizers of the PAC-12's #WeAreUnited movement. In the first half of the episode, Otito shares his nuanced views on questions of exploitation, coercion, and harm in college football, both from his personal experiences and conversations with countless other players across the country. Then, in the second half, he walks us through how the pandemic fomented labor activism on his own campus at UCLA and then in the PAC-12 more broadly, from the writing of the Players Tribune #WeAreUnited manifesto to meeting with Larry Scott and the cancellation (at the time) of the PAC-12's season.

College football is a multi-billion-dollar industry. So even as coronavirus spread, most schools pushed forward with the 2020 season. But as the pandemic and the racial justice movement exposed inequalities across the country, college football athletes, who aren’t paid for their work and the risks they take on the field, started to speak up. Treyjohn Butler, a senior cornerback at Stanford University, was one of those students. He and other football players from his NCAA conference, the Pac-12, came together under a group called #WeAreUnited and wrote a list of demands that included better health care, racial justice, and compensation for student athletes. On this episode of Into America, Treyjohn tells Trymaine why he thinks it’s the right time to change the way colleges treat their football players.

It concludes with a discussion of college sport during the pandemic, including Tezira's efforts to steer the University of Texas in a more ethical direction, the current #WeAreUnited and College Athlete Unity movements, and the failure of the mainstream media to acknowledge the centrality of Black leadership to both current and historical efforts to produce a more just model of college sport.

Welcome to Majority.FM's AM QUICKIE! Brought to you by justcoffee.coop TODAY'S HEADLINES: Biden will announce his VP pick tomorrow, or maybe he won’t!. Also, AOC at the DNC, Trump wants to break the law at Gettysburg, and more: we’re doing a politics funbag at the top of the night. Meanwhile, Donald Trump’s administration is circulating a proposal that would crack down on immigration on the Mexican border to absurd levels, even preventing some legal citizens from entering the country if they’re suspected of carrying the coronavirus. And lastly, Chicago police say they’ve arrested over 100 after a night of chaotic protests and looting broke out on Sunday following a fortunately non-fatal shooting by the police. THESE ARE THE STORIES YOU NEED TO KNOW: Joe Biden has selected a vice presidential running mate. Or maybe he hasn’t! Either way, he’s not telling, but that’s not stopping literally anyone from speculating wildly. Take the New York Times, for instance, published a full story on Monday basically saying welp, he’s talked to everyone! Now the decision will come... some time. It might be today, but other people think it might be wednesday. And no one knows who it’ll be, though Kamala Harris, Susan Rice, and Elizabeth Warren are all in the running, along with a handful of others. Anyway, let’s move on to more concrete news: the DNC. Against all odds, New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez is getting a speaking slot, playing opener to Bernie Sanders. Kinda wild the DNC took this long to announce that, considering they had literal Republican John Kasich all lined up weeks ago. Over on the Republican side, Trump is planning some more breaches of decorum and possibly the law: he wants to accept his party’s nomination at Gettysburg. But that’s a major breach of ethics, as doing partisan business on federal property is generally seen as a no-no. He’ll probably end up doing whatever he wants! In the final miscellaneous event of note today, Trump was rushed out of a press briefing by the Secret Service after a shooting outside of the White House. Secret Service agents allegedly shot someone after a disturbance near the fence. Trump walked back into the briefing after a few minutes, perhaps in an attempt to save face from the time he got caught hiding in the presidential bunker during protests. Trump May Try to Stop Citizens at Border LUCIE: The Trump administration is reportedly considering its harshest immigration restriction yet, in this case circulating a proposal that would preventing some legal citizens from entering the country from Mexico if they’re suspected of carrying the coronavirus. That Trump is singling out the Mexican border isn’t surprising, but it is open evidence that there’s nothing behind this order other than blatant racism. It would have literally no effect on cases in the U.S., as the disease is spreading unfettered in our own communities here, but would largely make the lives of latino Americans and their families incredibly difficult on the border. What Trump is doing with this order is again trying to use Mexico as a scapegoat for all his problems. He figures if he can blame rising coronavirus on Mexico, it’ll distract some of his core base from realizing how utterly he failed them this year. And he’s clearly willing to do whatever it takes to do that, including barring U.S. citizens from their own country. Keep in mind, he might not have the legal authority to do it, of course, and none of this is law yet. But if it does come down, we all know what it’s for. Chicago Protests Flare Up In Chicago, a day and night of confusion on Sunday ripped up parts of the city, as protesters took to the streets after reports of a police shooting. On Monday, Chicago police said they’d arrested over 100 people, and that 13 cops had been injured during the demonstrations, which also spilled over into widespread looting. Part of the community’s fury on Sunday night was driven by mistaken rumors, that said the police had shot dead a 15-year-old boy. However, authorities claim that the police were fired upon by a 20 year old suspect, who they shot but did not kill. The suspect is reportedly in stable condition at the hospital. The suspect’s brother, however, denied that his sibling fired at the police in an interview with the Chicago Sun-Times. Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot said the looting was quote “straight up felony criminal conduct,”and quote “an assault on our city” endquote, but it’s pretty clear that the public’s relationship with the police is so strained it could boil over at any second, which is always going to cause collateral damage. Chicago police closed down roads and streets in the business district that saw much of the looting and in downtown Chicago on Monday night as well. AND NOW FOR SOME QUICKER QUICKIES: Belarus also erupted in protests after its strongman leader Aleksandr Lukashenko won a ludicrous 80 percent of the vote in a highly sketchy election and then cracked down on dissent. Lukashenko’s police have brutally attacked protesters and arrested at least 14 journalists for covering the demonstrations. NCAA football players are undergoing a remarkable organizing push under two joined campaigns, hashtag #WeAreUnited and #WeWantToPlay, which unite two groups of players pushing for a college football season to go ahead, but only if the schools involved commit to stringent coronavirus prevention protocol and support for the athletes involved. It’s not quite a college football players union yet, but it’s getting there. The newspaper guild members of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette voted overwhelmingly, 88-31, in favor of authorizing a strike at the paper. If the News Guild leadership signs off on it, it’ll add a huge weapon to the arsenal of a group of journalists who have been fighting their owners’ anti-union lawyers over a new contract for three and a half years. A freak storm packing 100 mile per hour winds, known as a “derecho” swept across the Midwest on Monday, snapping trees and flipping vehicles across Iowa, Indiana, Michigan and other regions, leaving several injured and thousands without power. Just a sneak peak of what climate change has in store! Aug 11, 2020 - AM Quickie HOSTS - Sam Seder & Lucie Steiner WRITER - Jack Crosbie PRODUCER - Dorsey Shaw EXECUTIVE PRODUCER - Brendan Finn

They talk about the realities of whether or not the schedule will ever be played and also delve into the added complication by the #WeAreUnited movement formed by Pac-12 football players willing to sit out the season unless specific demands are met - ranging from the elimination of liability waivers in the wake of COVID-19, to expanded scholarships and insurance, to battling racial injustice in the wake of the killing of George Floyd, to revenue splits. It's a wide-ranging set of demands, and the guys go through it and talk about the moment being an opportune time for the conference and universities to teach real-life lessons about finances, spending, taxation, and more. Talk then turned to recruiting and the news that coveted tight end Brock Bowers from Napa, Calif. is set to choose between Washington and Georgia. Which school will it be? They also give updates on the two remaining in-state five-star targets - J.T. Tuimoloau and Emeka Egbuka, and also talk about new UW 2022 WR commit Germie Bernard, as well as where the numbers stand for both the 2021 and 2022 class.
