The sports and fashion industries affect athletes and the public simultaneously. We go into detail on trends, how people in sports get into the fashion world, the difference between sportswear and athleisure, and balancing power structures between the athletes and people in positions of power over them. The Speaking of Youth series is a space for youth to host conversations and discuss the topics on their mind. This miniseries is all about sports! To find more SPNN programs, head to spnn.org.
