This February, in honor of Black History Month, Pros & Prose will be focusing on the stories of black athletes and their fight for equality, and in this latest episode, Micah interviews Wyomia Tyus - the first person to ever win back to back Olympic golds in the 100 meter dash. Together, they talked about her growing up in the Jim Crow South, the importance her coach Ed Temple had on her life, and her fight for justice as a black woman.
