WNBA star Karima Christmas-Kelly has lived in Texas, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Indiana, and even South Korea - so it would be an understatement to say she’s developed a unique perspective on race relations. And right now, she’s in the heart of a city in real pain. The Minnesota Lynx forward talks about recovering from a season-ending injury and participating in recent Minneapolis protests against police brutality. Karima also discusses the uncertainties of when, and if, the WNBA season will happen, why it's important for athletes to use their platform to address social issues, her definition of an ally, and how she’s prepared for life after sports.
