Outsiders Outside: Minorities on the Slopes
Podcast: The PodiumPublished On: Tue Dec 21 2021
Description: Only 1.8% of US ski area users are Black, leaving minority skiers and snowboarders with little representation at the top levels of the sport. Andre Horton, the first able-bodies black skier on the US Ski Team and Brian Rice, the first black snowboarder to be sponsored by a major US ski resort, join host Lauren Shehadi to discuss the experience of being a rarity in the lift line, the vibrant and supportive community they discovered within Black ski culture and the pipeline for putting more minorities in the mountains and on the podium.
