Maya Angelou once said, “When someone shows you who they are, believe them”.
Lately, there has been too many men in the male-dominated world of sports podcasting who are showing themselves to be unbelievably hostile—if not angry—at the mere sight of women achieving success in sports.
Podcaster and influencer Charleston White is a good example of someone who has shown who he is, time after time. He’s demonstrated himself to be a reckless, rude and repulsive personality who doesn’t seem to have the slightest care in the world. He has routinely made misogynistic and racist comments, including advocating for Asian women to be sexually assaulted by Black men by relying on historically-racist stereotypes about Black men as violent brutes and Asian women as weak and feeble.
His latest target is Chicago Sky power forward Angel Reese.
During an appearance on the Club 520 Podcast hosted by former NBA player Jeff Teague, White defended previous comments made by Shaquille O’Neal, in which he suggested his fellow LSU alum should dunk while wearing short shorts in order to draw more viewers to the WNBA. The comments made on Reese’s podcast, Unapologetically Angel, made her visibility uncomfortable and drew ire on social media.
