I love this generation of college basketball players because the fearlessness they have to speak up about injustices is something I didn’t have in college. The “grateful & happy to be here” women’s athlete is a thing of the past. I’m celebrating that fact today! Proud of y’all!

Hey white people: do you know what digital blackface is? It’s when you post reaction gifs/pics of Black people even though you’re white. Stop doing it. It’s a bad look.

Hey @Google! Can we do something about the top question that pops-up when we search the @WNBA? The question leads to a hateful & inaccurate post on reddit that bashes the #WNBA & helps perpetuate the sexist & wrong idea that the WNBA is an inferior product to the @NBA.

It's my birthday y'all! What I'd like is world peace, but I'll settle for your greenbacks:) If you give me your extra dimes, I'll rub them together in order to help write a history no one has to be ashamed of:)

I’m usually not scared to share news publicly but the amount of hate, myths & ignorance actually had me debating sharing this joy. I had Top Surgery! I’m feeling free & euphoric in my body & want Trans people to know and see that we’ve always existed & no one can erase us! 🏳️‍⚧️✊🏽❤️

I'm gonna need the sports teams and leagues to do less quoting of MLK and more of hiring Black women.

Yo! Just in case it isn't clear: when people say "COVID-19 is disproportionately killing communities of color", they do NOT mean that Black + brown people are biologically more at risk/more sensitive to the virus.
