I think the inference here is that since these other unpopular sports may have origins in 'non-white' cultures, there is some underlying bias against them by our racist American society.
If people want to play soccer (as I think it is the #1 youth sport here in terms of participation), then let them play. If they want to play football, let them play. If they want to play rugby. let them play. Parents should encourage their kids to be active and participate in whatever they find enjoyable. If they see football, basketball and hockey on TV and want to do that, well, fine.
Millions here play softball, rec league basketball, hockey and soccer, run, bike, swim, weight train, hike, mountain climb, play tennis, golf etc. That's already pretty diverse.
