- The people with the most power in sports (managers, team owners, etc) are mostly white

# data[].attributes.body
I noticed that in sports most managers that control these sports teams are white. Black men usually play sports such as football (an aggressive sport hmm..) and basketball. Also the second a black athlete does something “scandalous” they are immediately thrown into the media as this terrible person and I feel that they hold them more accountable than a white athlete.

I realized that most sports managers are older white men mostly likely over the age of 50. They are portrayed very often during sports games.

Why

The sports teams that use doping methods are not respectable but the sports teams that go to the big leagues by working hard at their sport are seen as deserving more respect than those that are cheating just to win.

people view sports like golf, tennis, hockey and baseball for white males

Why does it exist

# data[].attributes.body
i learned about polite racism and how there is always an identification towards black players, especially in hockey: "black hockey player"

# data[].attributes.body
I learned that some sports players don't acknowledge issues that don't involve them directly because they value their careers more than political subjects.

# data[].attributes.body
I learned that

# data[].attributes.body
That racism and sports has a historical significance. People claim that sports and politics are to be separate but unless you stop playing the national antheme and take out the national flag it will never be just “a sport”.

# data[].attributes.body
I learned that coloured people are more likely to be scrutinized when playing hockey than a white man playing hockey. And they get acknowledged in a different way than the white players on the hockey teams.

The way sidney crosby behaved is refered to as polite racism which is very comman in Canada.

I learned that sports are very political in the first place and protesting in sports is perfectly reasonable because it is already political

# data[].attributes.body
I learned that trump was verbally attacking two of the hockey teammates. He has no right to do that and I think he thinks that there are double standards when it comes to sports and racism

# data[].attributes.body
i learned that remaining silent, even if you aren’t saying or doing anything racist, you are contributing to racist behaviour. by not speaking out you are enabling the behaviour. also that politics has always been apart of sports and for people to say that “you shouldn’t combine the two” is irrelevant bc it’s already happened.

The history of certain racial profiling and stereotyping in hockey and other sports and how they make the lives of players more difficult today because instead of just playing a sport it is now a political issue.

I learned that there are norms for what sports certain races so partake in. Black people predominantly get scrutinized because our society has socially constructed them to viewed down upon

I find it intresting that black hockey player are refered to as black hockey playerbut when it comes to white player participating in predominantly black sports they are refered to as football player or basketball player.

This is a lose lose situation. When Colin Kaepernick spoke out about racism and police brutality he ended up losing his job. Travis Kelve, a white NFL player in a predominantly black league took a knee during the national anythem and no one took notice. When Lebron James spoke out he was told to shutup  and dribble. It seems as if no matter who stand up against racism their efforts are picked apart and never contribute to any actual change.

I learned that racism was so bad that there had to be such things as the ‘negro league’ and the ‘coloured league’

# data[].attributes.body
I learned that no matter who stands up against racism there is always something wrong with their efforts. Lebron James was told to shutup  and dribble. Travis Kelce, a white nfl player took a knee and no one took notice. Colin Kaepernick took a knee and lost his job as a result. Who does society want to speak up because it seems like no matter who does they are always shut down.
