Description

In this episode of Eusebius on TimesLIVE, CSA's Lawson Naidoo joined the platform to explain their decision that it is compulsory for the Proteas to take a knee before their matches in a show of anti-racism solidarity.

McKaiser challenged Naidoo to explain what value such symbolism has if it is not voluntary. Naidoo conceded that the moral and political value of symbolism is diminished when it is mandatory.

Naidoo also confirmed that this new policy directive had been taken without consulting the players.
