Seahawks' Bennett writing book 'Things That Make White People Uncomfortable'

Seattle Seahawks defensive end Michael Bennett has never shied away from speaking his mind, particularly when it comes to social issues, and will now be putting his thoughts on paper.

Dave Zirin, a sports editor at The Nation, announced Monday on Twitter that he's co-authoring a book with Bennett titled "Things That Make White People Uncomfortable."

It will be Black Santa's thoughts about, in his words, "the NFL, racism, sexism, intersectionality and athletes being no longer silenced."

The book was purchased by Anthony Arnove of Haymarket Books, who describes it as "a sports memoir and manifesto as hilarious as it is revealing," according to Publishers Weekly. It's scheduled to be released in April 2018.
