Manage episode 284216999 series 2469324
Warning: This programme contains racial slurs.
Whether it is impulsive or intended, structural or whispered, racism in sport has been growing over the decades. Racial bias and inequalities not only interfere with the game but also affect players’ morale and sometimes lead to lost opportunities.
How do top players deal with racism on and off the field and what needs to be done to stamp it out? How can sporting federations address this issue, and can audiences be made more aware of the impact racial slurs have on players?
In this edition of WorklifeIndia, we talk to three Olympians about ways to tackle racism in sport.
Presenter: Devina Gupta
Contributors: Anju Bobby George, former athlete, senior vice president, Athletics Federation of India; Jwala Gutta, Indian shuttler; Anita Asante, Aston Villa defender, former England international
