Imagine if the reverse was said. I'll leave it at that.
"And in a game built by Black women, it matters that the faces of the future look like the faces of the past."
I'm sure a lot of people thought the same thing about white males and baseball back in the pre Jackie Robinson days.
I didn’t realize that James Naismith was a black woman.
USA Today is trash for quite some time IMO
I'm not surprised by anything the media says nowadays, I'll leave it at that
tribalism 101 - identity politics
A white woman is setting us all straight about black women and basketball. She also said that trash talk broke out between Clark and Reese, which isn't accurate. Such a BS argument. She totally diminishes Plum, Ionscue(sp) and Clark not to mention Nancy Lieberman
Tell me again why the color of someone's skin matters at all?
We're never going to get past racism if we keep perseverating over our differences in appearance.

Hadn't read the article yet but after seeing the comments I thought the columnist was either an angry black woman or a woke SJW white woman.
The latter was correct.
Business As Usual..........

The writer should be required to take a class about Diversity Equity and Inclusion.
Unfortunately, we are not completely free from any racism in this world....but it is also true that some people "NEED" there to be racism, whether real or imagined, so they can then lecture the rest of us with their inane platitudes. Basketball is neither a black nor white game, to say nothing of any other skin colors, unless some idiot tries to make it so.
Play the game, enjoy the great play and expanded attention being brought to the game. Knock it off with the incessant attempts by some to make it something it isn't.

A’ja Wilson, arguably the best player in the world, whose award résumé is longer than a Walgreens receipt, doesn’t have near the star power of Clark.
She blew this joke as well.
CVS has the long receipts. Walgreens is standard length like any other store. This is more egregious than the race baiting.

I would advise people against giving that trash site more clicks.
Let's just call this bs what it is... mentally ill liberal white people who are grandstanding for black people that could give a crap what a white person thinks.

Sadly, she teaches that class
… and print media wonders why they have been obsoleted. People don’t have to pay for that.

It’s true of much of MSM - they are so dishonest not only in what they cover (and how) but also in what they don’t cover.

It’s been hijacked and now racism is rationalized. MLK is rolling in his grave.
It’s the latter 99% of the time.
This is clickbait for the triggered and appears to working like a charm. Fox News has made billions around a similar philosophy of manufacturing outrage. This writer seems to understand how to get eyeballs on her writing.
No truer words have ever been spoken
USA Today has been a shit publication for years. Piss on those dog phuckers!

The left invented manufactured outrage, how ironic
Unless it's Jemelle Hill.
Oh, and you don't think CNN, CNBC, NYT, Washington Post, etc. haven't made billions stirring outrage? All the media has an agenda to get viewership.

Ever since George Floyd's death, everything has become about race. Hell, you better capitalize the word Black or you will get in trouble.
Hell, Cooper DeJean was asked at the NFL Combine about possibly being the first White starting NFL cornerback since 2002. He sidestepped that race question as best as one could. You can either play the position or you can't, regardless of race.
Why can't we celebrate the player without bringing up their skin color? Caitlin is a great player who has changed EVERYTHING when it comes to women's basketball. JuJu Watkins is a great player, too. Who gives a damn about their race? Unfortunately, too many people do, including the author of this article. Hell, ESPN has become ridiculously bad when it comes to race baiting.

When ESPN went woke, massive layoffs followed. Nobody wants to tune in to a sports television show and listen to politics.
ESPN had layoffs because the cable money stopped coming in. End of story.
It’s a stupid article but I really think it’s designed to be clickbait. You are right that if an author stated the future of women’s basketball needed to be white, we would have people freaking out like we have in this thread.
