In every corner of sports, athletes have long been some of the most vocal and expressive leaders on the forefront of change in society. Perhaps in the last decade, athletes’ contribution to consciousness-raising has reached a pinnacle. Today we join Ashton Henderson MA, MBA immediate past Director of Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion for the Detroit Pistons to discuss the distinct equality and inclusion challenges facing professional sports, the Good Ol Boy Network’s pervasiveness, and how to create more inclusive spaces in the athletic arena.
