Coupling awareness of Chinese atrocities with Olympic media coverage—which has brought a geopolitical gaze to the sports pages—has been, and can continue to be, an effective strategy for activists working on behalf of Tibet, Sudan, and other causes. But it is realistic activism, not wanton calls for boycotting, that should now anchor these efforts. Pressuring sponsors, media corporations, and other parties...
