Being raised by a strong Black woman led Sha’Carri to embrace her identity as well. “I would say that’s where I got my confidence from. Just the fact of being in a community, being from South Dallas, that is predominantly Black,” Sha’Carri shared.
“I’m going to stand in who I am at the end of the day. I’m not going to change that,” she revealed. However, being an inspiring figure for Black women across the nation and the globe was not an easy task.
Black women frequently experience double standards, as Sha’Carri noted, noting that actions that are perceived as aggressive or sassy in Black women may not be the same in others.
“One of the most powerful Black men said it, but the most disrespected person in the United States is [the] Black woman,” said Sha’Carri. She was still appreciative of her origins, though.
Sha’Carri Richardson has continually demonstrated her devotion to track and field, from her early years in Dallas to setting records on the international scene. Her grandmother’s steadfast support, coupled with her colorful sense of style and strong acceptance of her Black identity, never ceased to uplift and empower her.
