After two decades, 199 career games with the US National Team, and 63 international goals, Megan Rapinoe is retiring. Her legacy won’t just be as a great athlete. She’ll also be remembered for her outspoken support of social justice. Dave Zirin looks back on this dimension of her career, from her decision to take a knee with Colin Kaepernick, to her recent advocacy of transgender rights.
