An inspiring graphic memoir of taking the road less traveled from
celebrated athlete and activist Colin Kaepernick.
High school star athlete Colin Kaepernick is at a crossroads in life.
Heavily scouted by colleges and MLB as a baseball pitcher, he has a
bright future ahead of him as a highly touted prospect. Everyone from
his parents to his teachers and coaches are in agreement on his future.
Colin feels differently.
Colin isn't excited about baseball. In the words of five-time all-star
MLB player Adam Jones, "Baseball is a white man's game." Colin looks up
to athletes like Allen Iverson: talented, hyper-competitive,
unapologetically Black, and dominating their sport while staying true to
themself. College football looks a lot more fun than sleeping on hotel
room floors in the minor leagues of baseball. But Colin doesn't have a
single offer to play football. Yet.
This touching graphic memoir explores the story of how a young change
maker learned to find himself and never compromise. How the right
decision is very rarely the easy one, but taking the road less traveled
can make all the difference in the world.
