I saw this sports documentary at the Grand Lake Theater with Dorian. It was powerful. There are endless stories about racism, oppression, denying the rights of people of color, especially in my parents' generation and my generation. Dorian is a case study of a gifted athlete who was marginalized and cut out of so many opportunities because of his race. Watching this together was very powerful.
So many stories stood out, but listening to the stories of long distance runner Billy Mills and golfer Bill Wright really hit home. Very powerful evening. So glad I was able to share it with D.
