The National Brotherhood of Skiers is Doing The Work

  • Resumen

  • Three years after the world engaged in deep conversations about diversity and inclusion, the topic may have faded for some—but certainly not for the National Brotherhood of Skiers (NBS). In August, nine young Black athletes supported by the NBS attended an elite conditioning and performance education camp at U.S. Ski Snowboard headquarters in Park City, UT. I Zoomed with three athletes on their last night at the camp: alpine skier Fantaye Gilbertson, mogul skier Kennedy Hicks, and Red Bull-sponsored snowboarder LJ Henriquez. We dove right into it and had a conversation that was sometimes deep and sometimes wonderfully light, and NBS president Henri Rivers joined us at the end with some powerful words. Afterwards, the Skiing History Nugget is about knee-high ski boots (49:02), and I read a short bulletin to wrap up the show (52:55).
