It Is Doubly Hard: Being a Black Woman in Sport

Whiteness Interrupted by Dr. Tanya Raquel

Episode notes

Jessica Cherry shares the need for representation in college athletics and her sense of responsibility to ensure student-athletes never feel as though they are the only one in ways she did as a young Black woman in sport. She asks the questions [as a Black woman], “why can’t I just be talented?” and “why can’t I be expected to be great?” and wants the world to know “I’m not exhausted, I’m just getting started.”
