We rightfully talk about Ruby Bridges being the first Black child to integrate an all-white school in the South at 6-years-old. But we don’t talk nearly enough about Lucille Bridges, her mom ✨

The WNBA has never had a trans woman play in the league’s 30-year history and now the right and other anti-trans activists are hammering the league over something that has never been an issue, proving once again it isn’t about protection but exhibiting cruelty toward trans people.

Reading Chamique Holdsclaw’s story honestly made me kind of sad. She and so many of the women who built this league deserved so much better. We’re all enjoying today’s WNBA because they kept pushing through moments like these. ❤️ #WNBA

Screenshot of an Instagram post by Chamique Holdsclaw. The image shows several WNBA players asleep in economy-class airplane seats during a team flight in 1999, illustrating the travel conditions players experienced in the league’s early years. The caption reflects on paying to upgrade for extra legroom, being criticized for it, and coaches sitting in first class. Holdsclaw says she’s proud of how far the WNBA has come and credits the women who spoke up for creating better conditions for future generations.
