Episode 144: Alice Coachman
from Have You Met Her? Hosted by Paige
We're celebrating National Girls & Women in Sports Month by learning about the first Black Woman to ever win an Olympic Gold Medal in Athletics (commonly known as track & field). Alice's story reminds us that hard work and patience can be even more important than fancy shoes or state-of-the-art training facilities. This woman jumped over a bar, and then raised it for all women athletes that came after her. Support the podcast on Buy Me A Coffee.
