- Reposted by Dani ShawThese players have too much power = these Black women know their worth. WOSO in this country has felt like this for a long time. Ask me how I know. These people don't like it when we know our worth. Keep in mind that there are Black investors, but no Black owners. It's giving NFL racism.

- Reposted by Dani ShawStarting with "You can have your opinions on trans issues & who can/cannot participate in women's sports leagues based on gender standards" is positioning this as a debate. Trans people's ability to fully participate in public life is NOT an "opinion" to "disagree" on! We have lost the plot!
