By Molly Lloyd*, Swimming World College Intern
Depending on where you are, if you look around you, at the teams that you’re on, at the teams against whom you race, and even at the Olympic swimmers, you’ll realize that swimming tends to be a sport dominated by white people. On the 2012 Olympic team, only three out of the 24 swimmers on the men’s team, and two out of 25 swimmers on the women’s team, were people of color.
While it might be hard to realize – or just easier for some of us to ignore – we need to address the fact that competitive swimming, while near and dear to our hearts, seems to have race problem.
