In 1920, the League formed with over 300 players and 14 teams. While the formation of the League is well known, the integration of it is more obscure. Only two Black players initially competed amongst the 14 teams. One of these athletes was Hall of Famer, Fritz Pollard. During the struggle for Black athlete presence in the League, he became the first Black head coach and saw 13 Black players emerge into the professional football arena. Unfortunately, this integration did not last.
I want to highlight the Arts part of STEAM in a unique way for the My Cause My Cleats initiative. This year, I’m showcasing the Phoenix Art Museum on my game cleats because I want to emphasize the importance of art with regard to education, expression, beauty, and historical significance. The 3D NFTs honor the literal foot journey of the sport that afforded me this platform. There is so much history and evolution within football that can be seen through something as simple as a cleat. So if we use this vessel for My Cause My Cleats, then we can honor significant eras in football with regard to social and historical context, technological evolution, creativity, and art through that same icon. Art can be the greatest storyteller. These NFTs – these cleats – tell an important story.
Proceeds from this NFT collection sale will go to support the Phoenix Art Museum.
