あらすじ・解説
HAPPY PRIDE EVERYONE! To celebrate Pride Month Lizzy & Ciara are highlighting the LGBTQ+ rowing clubs in the US - DC Strokes & Chicago Rowing Union. This episode features the interim President of DC Strokes, Phillip Carlisle. Phillip shares the history and importance of the LGBTQ+ community rowing space and talks about their premier event of the year, the Stonewall Regatta. Winning wine for first place? Say less. Phillip also shares the club's current stance on USRowing's choice in hosting both Youth and Masters Nationals in Florida, which is currently targeting the LGBTQ+ community through harmful policies.
*This episode was recorded on Monday, June 13th. USRowing and DC Strokes have since been in conversations around the boycott and are finding ways to amend the selection process for future regattas.
