Imagine being exposed to your first group of women of color ball players in Australia who shared their joys, frustrations and accomplishments with me about playing ball.  How wonderful is it for a whole new generation to be aspired and inspired women who are athletic, intelligent and not afraid to break barriers one hoop at a time.  But, nothing could prepare me for the WNBA  activism and power…

"College Sports: American Dream's forgotten.

No need to brush up on your French nor German.

The camera crew follows the athletes around.

No voice over, letting them speak for themselves.

A endearing, hopeful and sad journey for those kids.

Plantation fuckery.

Everyone and everybody is exploiting them kids.

ngl the reason the older mclaren unboxed videos from like 2019 fascinate and compel so much is the stylistic choice the director made for the camera to be like a voyeuristic eye that lingers, watching through the cracks of doors or peeping over barriers like this without really any extra commentary or music. it catches the drivers when they're not really performing for the media, revealing something vulnerable and real about them. in this particular case, carlos when he's alone before a race looks a bit like a huge dork doing his athletic warm ups, and lando seems all relaxed and pliable in the hands of his trainer as he gets his head in the game. they have totally opposite energies but it makes sense for both. i just love getting to see what's happening behind closed doors <33

Cross-country season has started! Fifa!talia is out, FIS!talia is in!

Most of the athletes on the GBR team are Scottish and they all live in Norway most of the year. Norwegians have such a love for them and some of them even speak Norwegian fluently. Two years ago, they lost funding from the UK government and it looked like they would have to quit skiing all-together. Then, rich Norwegians began sponsoring them and now they are training with a private Norwegian team and funded by Norwegians 💖
