ABSTRACT
Written in narrative form, the author of Chapter 20 provides her personal account of racial privilege and unpacks the need for Whites to recognize their racial identities. While acknowledging those who identify as White are not racially neutral, the author urges White sport feminists to be both intersectional in their awareness and advocacy and to step aside and make space for colleagues, especially sister colleagues, of color. The author shares a personal vignette of a time when her Whiteness was revealed in her sport psychology consulting. She disseminates the challenges she encountered in understanding her racial identity, her contributions to racism as well as the harm she may have done in her previous approach to working with people and women of color. The author concludes by providing practical implications for White sport feminists to consider in their work.
