In Cleveland, Ohio, in 1945, the Cleveland Rams had just won the Championship. The 10 League teams were initially concentrated in the Northern and Eastern parts of the United States. After their victory, the Rams saw a daring opportunity to take their talents West to the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. The Coliseum was located in one of the largest and proudest Black communities. It took a team of brave journalists led by Haley Harding to fight against an all-white team invading their new stadium. It took LA native and UCLA football star, Kenny Washington, to unite the community behind the team. On March 21, 1946, Kenny Washington became the first Black athlete welcomed back in the League. Finally, integration returned to professional football.
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.
