In each episode we will get into the culture of women\u2019s sports. Breaking down what\u2019s good, what\u2019s bad, and what\u2019s weird. We\u2019ll hear from athletes and experts paving the way for the future, and sometimes we will go back in time to see how we got here in the first place.\nThis is the sports show where we give the girls some support.\nIn the episode highlighted here, Hall talks with Professor Amira Rose Davis about the high participation of Black American girls in track and field. They explore why this trend exists ,and how the cultural tradition of hand games shapes the sport we watch today.
