Erica L. Ayala is back and ready to argue with your favorite power couple. Well, kinda.

Megan Rapinoe wrote another amazing piece in the Players Tribune and the amazing Sue Bird summarized her "cute white girls" comments on CNN. Well, naturally everyone got upset for all the wring reasons. I offer my hot take and give you a list of athletes we should be listening to when it comes things unheard, as opposed to unspoken.

Also, I spoke to Bird and her BFF Diana Taurasi about this very topic over a year ago. You can watch on my YouTube Channel or listen on my guest episode of Burn It All Down.

Finally, I basically live tweeted the Black Women's Athletic Activism panel, you're welcome!

Okay, last one! Here is the All for XI article mentioned in this episode
