thank you, laura. perfect answer, no notes.
At her presser today, I asked Laura Harvey for her thoughts on the discourse about trans athletes and the #NWSL, and the divisive rhetoric targeting some players for their appearance. Here is her answer (with transcript of her remarks in alt text):

"The NWSL and the Players Association will eventually have to decide who is worthy of their protection."
Exactly.

One of the first things I learned at Syracuse was how badly Black members of the community had been fucked over in the past. So happy to see the city elect its first Black mayor in a landslide (76% as of last tally).
My city, Syracuse, NY, which was a major hub of the Abolitionist movement, has a 25% Black population, and has the highest concentration of poverty among Black people in America, appears to have elected its first-ever Black mayor.

"Comptroller" and "gubernatorial" don't sound like real words.

I'm pretty sure Sarah Gorden is the only person so far to use the word "transphobia"
I’ve also been stuck on the fact that Sarah Gorden apologized for another player’s comments, and is the only one to do so — despite it not being her fault in the slightest. I still hope we see public support of her from the league itself, as she is also targeted.
