Crystal Robinson - Former WNBA Player and Coach, Author, and Speaker

Join Hootie Hoot in The Sports Deli Podcast as we welcome back the incredible Crystal Robinson. If you haven't had the chance to listen to the first interview, we encourage you to do so. She talks about her WNBA career and upbringing before being arrested in the middle of our podcast as a result of what we believe to be another example of racial profiling by the police of Atoka, Oklahoma. She spent a night in jail and was charged with nothing but having her bright lights on. She continues to defend her name to this day. Crystal, despite her abysmal mistreatment, extended an olive branch to the police department asking for a public apology and they have refused. Crystal talks about her new memoir, Finding Myself, published by Talk + Tell and how because of her experiences, good and bad, her inner resiliency, and playing sports helped saved her and why she's so passionate now about paying it forward. She's a motivational speaker and has an unbelievable vibe. She shares her insight into Tom Brady which may surprise some of you, expresses how proud she is of the player of the WNBA, and answers the questions to our very famous rapid fire, "This or That" segment of the podcast.

Remember, your voice matters when fighting systemic racism. Read a book, acknowledge your white privilege, watch a movie about institutional racism, call your local or state representatives, and/or have a conversation with someone that doesn't look like you so that we can change the economic, educational, police, and prison narratives that currently need to be changed in this country, especially regarding the disproportionate number of people incarcerated for non-violent crimes like marijuana. Please mask up, remember Black Lives Matter, peace...
