Aboriginal Australian footballer fields growing racism

Adam Goodes, one of the most prominent Australian football players, is once again at the center of a heated debate over racism in the sport. Last week, Goodes, who is indigenous, was booed throughout a match. Coming to his defense, his fellow indigenous teammate Lewis Jetta did a “war dance” and mimicked a spear-throwing gesture at the opposing team’s fans. The gesture sparked a furor online over whether the jeers were racially motivated.
