Caitlin Clark was named Athlete of the Year by Time Magazine.
But when she mentioned white privilege in the lengthy article, MAGA mouthpieces screamed bloody murder.
This is one award Time got right.
Winning an election by being a horrible, lying, narcissistic buffoon does not make a Person of the Year, but I digress.
Clark has been a sensation, ratings-wise and playing-wise since being the first draft pick in the WNBA and winning rookie of the year.
In the article, Clark took the time to address the athletes who built the league.
I want to say I’ve earned every single thing, but as a white person, there is privilege. A lot of those players in the league that have been really good have been Black players. This league has kind of been built on them. The more we can appreciate that, highlight that, talk about that, and then continue to have brands and companies invest in those players that have made this league incredible, I think it’s very important. I have to continue to try to change that. The more we can elevate Black women, that’s going to be a beautiful thing.
5,4,3,2,1...MAGA eruption!
