UConn alum Swin Cash and her New York Liberty teammates talk about race, sexual orientation, and media coverage in women's professional basketball.
On September 10th, The Players' Tribune published a video of three major WNBA stars discussing a wide range of topics currently impacting their experiences in the league. As part of the "Players' POV" series, New York Liberty stars Tanisha Wright, formerly of Penn State, Essence Carson, a Rutgers standout, and UConn alum Swin Cash, discuss gender, race, talent, media coverage, and more in this wide-ranging video.
The content of the interview is nothing groundbreaking, but these points definitely need to be brought up in the public discourse around sports as many times as possible until the related societal issues are addressed in a meaningful way.
