Repurposing cultural symbols for contemporary myth making is common.
For class discussion: Does this symbol make you "feel bold, confident, competitive"? And, historically speaking, for whom is it a "timeless symbol of leadership spanning centuries, continents, and cultures"?

So much work to do to keep our athletes safe, focusing as much on changing cultural and social attitudes that put children in harm’s way as we do on improving safety equipment #guardiancaps #concussions #sportsafety #culturechange #socialrespsonsibility #coacheducation

Going to @NASSSport ?!? Consider attending our session titled, "How can sport management & sport sociology support each other?"
I think the mix of department type, career longevity, and research interests will (hopefully) lead to an insightful convo #NASSS2024

“Yet too many brands are idly missing their moment to capitalize on collaborating with athletes who rock their products, gracefully devoid of sweat, cameras, and in-game physicality.”

A statement made by Mikayla on Insta stated she was attacked while trying to enter the women’s bathroom. Her attacker questioned if she belonged there. This is how transphobia can harm cis women. There is no ideal way women should present, other than their authentic selves.
