Episode Description: In this inspiring episode of Black Is America, host Dominic Lawson takes us on a cinematic, time-traveling journey through the lives of three iconic Black women whose speed transcended the track: Wilma Rudolph, Florence Griffith Joyner (Flo Jo), and Sha'Carri Richardson. Joined by Olympic gold medalist Moushaumi Robinson, Dominic explores how each of these women didn't just run — they defied societal expectations, symbolizing freedom, resilience, and the unbreakable spirit of Black womanhood. From Wilma's battle with polio to Flo Jo's fashion-forward domination, and Sha'Carri's public redemption arc, this episode is a masterclass in perseverance and Black excellence. Tune in to uncover why for Black women, speed isn't just about winning — it's about being seen, celebrated, and rewriting history. Episode Highlights & Key Takeaways: Wilma Rudolph's journey: From polio-stricken childhood to becoming the fastest woman in the world at the 1960 Rome Olympics. Florence Griffith Joyner's style and speed: How Flo Jo combined athletic dominance with unapologetic beauty and cultural impact, redefining what a champion could look like. Sha'Carri Richardson's redemption story: How the sprinter's suspension became a national conversation on grace, resilience, and how Black women are held to impossible standards — and how she roared back stronger. The power of representation and freedom: Olympic gold medalist Moushaumi Robinson reflects on seeing Flo Jo as a child and how that vision of beauty and freedom inspired generations. Black women in business and politics: How Black women continue to break records not just on the track, but as entrepreneurs, educators, and changemakers. Historical context and cinematic storytelling: A non-linear journey through the stories of these women, enriched with sound design, Olympic archives, and historical parallels. The ongoing conversation around protecting and celebrating Black women: From Sandra Bland to Breonna Taylor, the episode challenges listeners to see victories without footnotes and to honor Black women's humanity and excellence fully. Notable Soundbites & Quotes from the Episode: "Speed is not just about moving fast — it's freedom." — Moushaumi Robinson "Black women don't just show up. They show out." — Dominic Lawson "It's always the first, but rarely the celebration." — Moushaumi Robinson "Sha'Carri's suspension wasn't just about track; it was about who gets grace and who doesn't." — Dominic Lawson "Black women mold adversity into strength — on the track, in boardrooms, and in Congress." — Dominic Lawson Final Thoughts This episode is a moving tribute to the legacy of Black women who run not just to win, but to inspire, break barriers, and push the world forward. Through Wilma, Flo Jo, and Sha'Carri, we're reminded that speed is more than physical — it's a spiritual declaration of freedom and resilience.

En 1960, Wilma Rudolph se convirtió en la mujer más rápida del mundo al ganar tres medallas de oro en los Juegos Olímpicos de Roma. Sin embargo, su camino hacia la victoria estuvo lleno de obstáculos. Cuando era niña, sufrió polio y los médicos dijeron que nunca volvería a caminar sin ayuda. En lugar de aceptar ese destino, su madre, una mujer de fe, la animó a creer en lo imposible. Por lo tanto, con mucho esfuerzo, terapias y una determinación inquebrantable, Wilma no solo volvió a caminar, sino que corrió más rápido que cualquier otra mujer de su época. Su historia nos recuerda que, cuando Dios tiene un propósito para nuestra vida, ninguna limitación humana puede detenerlo. En la Biblia vemos ejemplos similares. Por ejemplo, José fue vendido como esclavo y encarcelado antes de llegar a ser gobernador de Egipto. Moisés, a pesar de su dificultad para hablar, fue usado por Dios para liberar a Israel. Pablo tenía un aguijón en la carne, pero su debilidad fue el canal de la fortaleza de Dios. Si hoy sientes que hay algo en tu vida que te está limitando, recuerda que Dios es quien da las fuerzas y abre caminos. No permitas que las circunstancias definan tu destino; cree en el propósito de Dios para ti. La Biblia dice en Filipenses 4:13: “Todo lo puedo en Cristo que me fortalece”. (RV1960)

But her mother told her she would, and young Wilma decided not only would she walk, she would run! A skilled sprinter, she qualified for her first Olympics at the age of 16, bringing home a bronze medal as part of the relay team. She decided to go further, faster, and at the 1960 Olympics she set records and won 3 gold medals, being dubbed “The Fastest Woman on Earth.”  During and after her athletic career, Wilma Rudolph used her celebrity to further important causes, from desegregation to sports education for children.   Find out more about Wilma Rudolph on our episode notes here: https://deadladiesshow.com/2024/08/16/podcast-74-wilma-rudolph/ Hear our episode about Dutch gold medal runner Fanny Blankers-Koen here: https://deadladiesshow.com/2017/10/26/podcast-2-fanny-blankers-koen/ Follow us on social media @deadladiesshow to keep up-to-date on all things DLS And find Dead Ladies NYC on Instagram here: @deadladiesnyc You can check out our Patreon and support us here: https://www.patreon.com/deadladiesshowpodcast Our upcoming show September 14th at 4pm at PodFest Berlin will have tickets available soon.

Wilma wurde Opfer der Kinderlähmung und erst nach jahrelanger Physiotherapie und speziellen Massagen konnte sie wieder ohne Gehhilfe gehen. Sie liebte es, mit ihren Brüdern Basketball ab ihrem elften Lebensjahr zu spielen und so wurde sie von Ed Temple, einem Leichtathletikcoach entdeckte, der sie 1955 als Schiedsrichter bei einem Basketballturnier entdeckte und ihr ein Arbeitsstipendium an seiner Hochschule vermittelte.1960 bei den Olympischen Spielen in Rom siegte sie in allen drei Kurzstreckendisziplinen und wurde damit zum Star.

Elle y est parvenue, jusqu'à devenir une légende injustement oubliée.

In this episode we delve into the fascinating intersection of coaching, psychology and real-life stories of how holding the space of belief for someone can plant the seeds of triumph over adversity.  We also explore how belief can powerfully impact achievement, as evidenced by the groundbreaking Jacobson and Rosenthal study.  The belief that we have in ourselves and others offers us insights into our unique strengths, our ability to overcome obstacles, and the influence it holds on our personal success.  Wilma Rudolph is a true icon who defied incredible odds.  As we explore her compelling story, we encounter the relentless power of belief conquering even the fiercest doubts.  But we also unmask an aspect of her story that is not often explored, the tenacity and resilience of her mother.  It was her unwavering belief that gave Wilma strength when she was a child, at times when she likely struggled with her own misgivings about the journey ahead.  Join us as we navigate the science of belief and uncover the remarkable stories of those who've defied the odds, fueled by their convictions.  Whether you're seeking inspiration, strategy or are just simply intrigued by the human psyche, this episode aims to leave you with a renewed sense of determination and understanding of the incredible potential residing within all of us.  EnjoyVisit us at:www.theselfhelpantidote.com

In this episode, I will share an article about Wilma Rudolph, found on myblackhistory.net. This article is part of the “Summer Shorts” being shared on the “You're Blank, What Now?” Podcast.  Listen in to hear about the life of Wilma Rudolph and how she went from having polio as an infant that caused paralysis that led to her losing the use of her left leg at the age of 6 years old, fighting through physical therapy with the help of her family, and becoming the fastest woman in the world! I am your host, Marci Nettles. I have had a lifetime of opportunities where I had the choice to Breakdown or Breakthrough. It is my hope this Podcast may become your light in the darkness, as you listen to the stories of people I consider “heroes.” Each one had a point where they too had to choose to either Breakdown or Breakthrough!

Pleasure Muse: WIlma Rudoplh    Tantalizing Trivia    She was the 20th of 22 children and weighed 4.5 pounds at birth. Her early health challenges included pneumonia, scarlet fever and polio.  As an Olympic champion, and the first American woman to win three gold medals in one Olympics,, she was among the most highly visible black women in America and abroad.  Her welcome home parade became one of the first integrated events in the state of Tennessee.  She was an active participant in the civil rights movement, participating in lunch counter protests that led to the desegregation of public facilities in Tennessee.  Her post-track and field career included graduating from Tennessee State University, becoming a teacher, a national broadcaster, a nonprofit leader, a Goodwill Ambassador in West Africa, and a coach.  She once dated boxing legend Muhammad Ali.  Her death, at the age of 54, was early and untimely, from brain and throat cancer.    Mirror Work Find a scar on your body that reminds you that it's possible to heal.

Many of us know the story of Wilma Rudolph and what she did at the 1960 Olympic Games, overcoming various illnesses to become the first woman to win 3 Olympic Gold Medals, in the 100m, 200m and 4x100m relay. But just 4 years later, fellow TSU Tigerbelle Edith McGuire, who is often forgotten, also won 3 Olympic medals at the 1964 Games in the 100m, 200m and 4x100m. Though she earned 1 gold and 2 silvers, McGuire's accomplishments were just as impactful and deserve a bit of highlight as well.   Episode Sources: https://library.nashville.org/blog/2021/07/heroines-track-tsus-tigerbelles-bring-home-gold  https://www.georgiaencyclopedia.org/articles/sports-outdoor-recreation/edith-mcguire-b-1944/ https://tshf.net/halloffame/mcguire-duvall-edith/ https://olympics.com/en/athletes/edith-marie-mcguire https://www.encyclopedia.com/women/encyclopedias-almanacs-transcripts-and-maps/mcguire-edith-1944  https://library.nashville.org/blog/2021/07/heroines-track-tsus-tigerbelles-bring-home-gold  https://youtu.be/xjs6qUI6C_c  https://youtu.be/soaaLNnXgDo

What would you label a group of athletes responsible for the majority of medals for the most decorated nation in the last 2 Olympics? Winners. A group who has fought for over a century to go from 2% of Olympic Athletes to 49%? Trailblazers. And what if this same group was routinely cast as less capable, exciting, profitable and valuable athletes? We're talking about the American women and women in the Olympics. For being incredible athletes and so much more, there is one label that fits better than most: Champions. Hear our conversation with Ashlyn Harris and Ali Krieger on how sports and the games are changing from their unique perspective as female Olympians, spouses of female athletes, activists and mothers. Mary Carillo tells the story of how Wilma Rudolph's resolve took her from childhood leg braces to Olympic track stardom and civil rights activism.
