"The only difference I see is I'm a black young lady," U.S. sprinter Sha'Carri Richardson said, after the Russian figure skater is allowed to compete at the Olympics despite a failed drug test.
Critics are outraged, saying the anti-doping agency for the games is turning a blind eye for the white athlete on the heels of suspending the Black sprinter earlier this month.
The 21-year-old was left off the U.S. Track & FIeld Olympic roster despite her astonishing performance at last month's trials, due to a 30-day suspension following a positive drug test for THC.
