"I want to say I've earned every single thing, but as a white person, there is privilege," says Clark. "A lot of those players in the league that have been really good have been Black players. This league has kind of been built on them. The more we can appreciate that, highlight that, talk about that, and then continue to have brands and companies invest in those players that have made this league incredible, I think it's very important. I have to continue to try to change that. The more we can elevate Black women, that's going to be a beautiful thing."
why didn't this racist piece of shit give the award to black players since she's so ashamed of being a white basketball player?
"America was founded on segregation and to this day is very much about Black and White,"
White America has rallied around Caitlin Clark. The support looks mostly amazing, sometimes fanatical and territorial, sometimes racist.
"It doesn't matter what we all do as Black women, we're still going to be swept underneath the rug," Wilson said. "That's why it boils my blood when people say it's not about race because it is."
what the frick is this article how are you gonna name someone athelete of the year and then dedicate a huge chunk of the article to black women good and special. white women bad and unspecial and get things based on them being white and nothing else

maybe she was tired of all the black players clawing her eyes out on the court and not getting fouls called.

they beat the shit out of her all year and anyone who pointed it out was called a racist sexist bigot pig chud magat loser.
instead of embracing the person who has a real chance to make YOUR ENTIRE SPORT profitable for the first time in the history of the world they went the other way because she's straight and white. it's been crazy to watch.

it's common for star rookies to be bullied by veterans. if they use it as motivation to keep improving, they'll earn respect
in a couple
of years. the drama
makes for a better
story
than if everyone
was just sucking them off from the start. like if she wasn't being bullied no one here would
even be talking
about the WNBA.
toxicity happens, it's a good thing, and it doesn't happen
enough.

i'm all for rookies getting their welcome to the league chump moments but it was above and beyond when it came to her. the other high profile rookie whom's name i don't remember got none of it. i bet you can guess her race!

i really don't think i know another human irl who knows who she is
the only times i've heard someone mention the wnba irl is when a bunch of headlines were going around saying that they should make the same money as nba players. and even then people only talked about them to say that they're irrelevant and don't deserve shit

It means @Fernanda have privilege, but out of literally all the people who had @Fernanda's level of privilege, @Fernanda is the one who still worked hard from that point of privilege, like how literally every millionaire kid cannot become worth 360 billion USD

It's an award from time magazine, not the WNBA sportswriters association or w/e. Of course you expect Time to be looking for novelty in its selection.

What is she supposed to do? Her whole career has had the shadow of her being white over it, despite her being the real deal, since there hasn't been any black female basketball players with her popularity. It's not her fault, but ofc they're gonna treat it like a problem that way anyways.
