here is the email i sent to my Chicago Stars ticket rep asking the club to make a statement about the racist & transphobic attacks on the NWSL — feel free to copy & paste! (alt text provided)

everyone's making great points with their concerns about this, but i'm stuck on Jordan Angeli being an investor/board member for Denver — will she be a commentator next season? that seems like a conflict of interest

i emailed Commissioner Berman as a member of @chicagolocal134.com, and you should too!

shout out to Rachael for often providing templates; figuring out what to write can be the most intimidating part of calling for action and holding leadership accountable!
I, name member of SG, stand with all trans people, but today especially with those who seek a future spot in the NWSL. I deeply oppose any so called “gender standards” that loudly ignorant transphobes support. I am also appalled at the lack of explicit support for players who are being unfairly

2. Using Banda for the cover photo here is obviously just extremely racist.
Deeply disappointed in Liz Eddy here, who I've always liked and respected. A reminder that we have a lot of work to do when it comes to educating the public about why trans inclusion isn't just morally correct, but competitively sound share.google/Gjf9a1Sl01eL...
