Abstract
This research paper examines several scholarly sources related to race and sport. This paper dives into the topic of sports in the African Diaspora and how star "black athletes" have used their podium to express social injustice. This paper will also explain how these athletes are helping better their communities. The paper will also explore the challenge athletes of color face against global white supremacy and Western sports media.
