As we revealed in part one, the 2007 Rutgers women's basketball team was having a Cinderella season when radio host Don Imus callously dragged them into a national firestorm with a racist slur, effectively stealing their moment. But the women of Rutgers didn't just go away quietly – they fought back, rising above the noise to tell their story. Susie and Jess are joined again by former Rutgers captain Essence Carson and Emmy-winning journalist Jemele Hill to unpack the aftermath of that sordid episode, and discuss the complexities of who gets to respond in anger when they are publicly targeted, and why. GUESTS:   Essence Carson, former WNBA star, Rutgers captain and current creative executive Jemele Hill, Emmy award-winning journalist FOR MORE: A First-Class Response to a Second-Class Put-Down (NYT, 2007) Imus: Race, Power and the Media (Newsweek, 2007) Don Imus, DJ fired for racial slur at Rutgers players, dies at 79 (ESPN, 2019) See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Long before Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese were shattering records and making national headlines, there was the 2007 Rutgers team. The New Jersey players had a Cinderella season, powering their way to the Final Four in an extraordinary triumph. But instead of being celebrated, the young women were attacked – dismissed and belittled in an infamous on-air slur by the popular radio host Don Imus. In this episode, Susie and Jess revisit the moment which sparked a national firestorm – and a much-needed conversation about racism, sexism and women's sports. They also welcome two women who were there: former Rutgers captain and WNBA star Essence Carson, and the journalist Jemele Hill, who reported on the story in real time.

This week, to send off Black History Month in style, we will be re-releasing an interview each day highlighting a Black person we’ve had on Burn It All Down in the past whose words and actions still resonate with us all. Back in April 2018, Shireen interviewed road cyclist Ayesha McGowan. At the time, McGowan was working toward becoming the first female African American pro cyclist in the US. They talk about that journey, about how activism and involvement in community engagement turned into racing, and about what we can all do to support diversity in road cycling. I’m pleased to say today — and you might have caught this during a Bad Ass Woman of the Week segment earlier this year — McGowan signed a contract in January with Liv Cycling making her a professional road cyclist. If you’d like to hear more interviews with Black athletes, check out our Guests list on our website: www.burnitalldownpod.com. We’ve talked to a bunch of hoopers including Bilqis Adbul-Qaadir, Essence Carson, Layshia Clarendon, Shakyla Hill, Kelsey Bone, Monique Billings; footballers Eni Aluko and Nicole McClure; legendary Olympic sprinter Wyomia Tyus; softball superstar AJ Andrews and baseball’s Malaika Underwood; hammer thrower Gwen Berry; speed skater Erin Jackson; and volleyball player Simone Lee. That’s not even close to all of them but it gives you a taste of the many Black athletes who have come on the show.

The last time a WNBA champion repeated the next year was back in 2001 and 2002. That team was the Los Angeles Sparks. So, who is to say the streak of non-repeaters will not end in 2017 with the same franchise? Last year’s WNBA finals were women’s basketball at its best, and its worst. Amazing talent graced the floor for both teams, but refereeing mistakes had a huge impact on outcomes. One thing that cannot be denied though is that the Sparks are worthy champions. Loaded with transcendent players like Most Valuable Player winners Nneka Ogwumike and Candace Parker, one of the best three point shooters in the game in Kristi Toliver, and two of the best defenders in the league in Alana Beard and Essence Carson, this team was rock solid. Just as important, they had a championship coach in Brian Agler, and they bought into his system. Turn the clock forward, and while some things remain the same, some things are very different. Toliver has taken her talents to Washington, replaced on the Sparks roster by Odyssey Sims, the enigmatic but extremely talented guard acquired from Dallas. Riquna Williams signed as a free agent last year but injured all season, returns healthy and will also help fill the role of scoring guard to space the floor. Chelsea Gray showed flashes of brilliance in the playoffs, and will undoubtedly step into a much bigger role this year as well, as she continues to mature as a point guard. With the exception of Gray and sixth woman Jantel Lavender, the rest of the bench is gone from last season. From that perspective, not having Parker, Ogwumike, Carson and Lavender for most of training camp allowed Agler to look at possible replacements, including first round draft choice Sydney Wiese, and to give extra time to getting Sims time in his system. The Sparks will raise their championship banner without Parker, Carson, and Lavender this weekend, but expect them all to be back for their ring ceremony next week.

If you have been listening to our podcasts over the years, you know that the Roundtable discussions are some of our most enjoyable and most popular podcasts. Today we bring you a roundtable featuring two of the most competitive players you will ever find, Jayne Appel-Marinelli, recently retired from the San Antonio Stars, and Mistie Bass, who just completed the season with the Phoenix Mercury. These two played the WNBA finalist Minnesota Lynx and Los Angeles Sparks a combined total of 15 times during the 2016 WNBA season and playoffs, so they are well equipped to discuss the success and difficulties playing with and against the finalists. Based on the finals, at least a portion of the new WNBA playoff format is a success. For perhaps the first time in WNBA history, the league has the two best teams meeting in the finals, which should make for some great basketball and a fun series to watch. First place Minnesota comes in with a 28-6 record, featuring a Lynx quartet of United States Olympians in Maya Moore, Sylvia Fowles, Seimone Augustus and Lindsay Whalen. Rebekkah Brunson is an experienced veteran completing their starting lineup, and the bench is deep right to the end, with even more experience. Los Angeles finished second in the regular season with a 26-8 record, and while they don't have a great deal of WNBA finals experience (Ann Wauters is the only Sparks player with finals experience), they are long and athletic, with talented scorers from inside and out, led by Most Valuable Player Nneka Ogwumike and former MVP Candace Parker. Ogwumike and Parker combined to average 43 points and almost 19 rebounds per game in the semi-final series against Chicago, and are a difficult matchup. When they are on their game, it opens up the outside for Kristi Toliver, Alana Beard and Essence Carson for their shots. Jantel Lavender could be starting for most teams and is Sixth Player of the year in the league, and Chelsea Gray has be
