NCAA Basketball Player talks getting new women's weight room after speaking out about gender inequality.
Oregon University basketball player Sedona Prince immediately turned to her popular TikTok page after seeing the stark differences between the women's and men's weight rooms at the NCAA tournament.
Her video showing that the women's training area was only provided with six pairs of dumbbells, while the men's was furnished with numerous training racks, bars, plates, dumbbells and benches, quickly went viral and has now enacted real change in the form of a new women's weight room.
The new weight room now has all the equipment one would expect for athletes competing at the most important college basketball event of the year, including heavier weights.
For things to change the problem must be pointed out and we must raise our voice, that small action can generate big changes and create an inclusive society with equal opportunities.
