Equity in Ultimate with Shanye Crawford; Atlanta, GA

What do you know about equity in athletics—and more specifically: in the niche, relatively new, and initially very white pocket of Ultimate Frisbee? From this very specific point of reference, Shanye Crawford, founder and CEO of Disc Diversity, talks with Trae about the unique opportunities to foster change on and around the playing field. As she organizes an all-Black tour for Fall of 2021, Shanye says that, “rather than looking to see what has been done, I intend to use Ultimate Frisbee to establish the athletic standard for equity.” This week’s Chime In features J'Lynn Matthews, Colton Green, and Austin Hegmon. This episode was produced by Lili Gu, Linnea Ingalls & Julia Drachman and edited by Josh Berl.
