Show Notes
In this episode, Megan and Sue open a conversation addressing the uncomfortable truths about the WNBA's ongoing struggles with racism, sexism, and other forms of discrimination. Moreover, they discuss the long history of these issues in the WNBA, and the media’s responsibility to share genuine and truthful narratives in the realm of women’s sports.
They also cover players’ role in using their platform to drive change while also questioning why it’s become players’ sole responsibility to defend themselves from online hate.
Plus, Megan and Sue share their reactions to your responses from last week’s "Are You a Megan or a Sue? White House Edition” and dive into Spike Lee and Kelsey Plum’s classic New York interaction at the Liberty game.
