High school students Jack, Spencer, and Max sit down with fellow peer, King, to discuss an increasingly concerning issue in high school athletics. King, who is one of only 34 black students out of 1,892 in our school, discusses first-hand experiences of how trash talk in sports has transitioned into blatant racism. Despite an awareness, a lack of solutions and normalization of the behavior has only perpetuated the problem.

Just some trash talk? One student athlete's experiences with racism in sports.
