Description:

"These are four black athletes competing in spaces that have historically been closed to black people. Not only are they competing in these spaces but they are dominating them. Ian Hardison carried his team to not one but two stanley cup wins, you can argue all you like but he is undeniably one of the best hockey players in the league right now. Neiko Rose is the face of American male gymnastics. He crushed the last olympic cycle, nabbing not only the all around medal but also helping team usa get the team gold, medaling on near every event and that’s not even mentioning that he’s the favorite to win worlds this year. I haven’t even mentioned Quinn Grey who is one of the most exciting soccer players to watch at the moment nor Angel Johnson who in three years went from being an unknown boxer to being the world light heavyweight champion. These young men are redefining what it means to be a black athlete in a white space and frankly if you don’t get it, it’s probably because you’re white.”
