x THE WMN : Sophia E*
Wednesday, August 12, 2020Every year I get so excited to do this project, because it gives me the opportunity to search through instagram. To look for interesting women to feature. This year is different though, We could say the theme this year is "Another life".
When I came across Sophia's profile, I was so intrigued. So much participation in activities that are not usually diverse. Activities where we don't usually see black bodies.
Representation Matters.
We connected with Sophia over IG Live to discuss her medical school journey, being a university student during covid-19 & her experiences in sports where there is a lack of diversity and representation.
Other stimulating posts for women's month feature the below women
- Ashley Dier , a runner from Toronto, Canada who is a boxer now

- Alechia Van Wyk , an ASICS front runner from the UK, in love with Cyclo-cross and old school triathlon
