Roots Of Fight celebrates Black History Month with a tribute to those who turned their triumphs into an even higher calling, transcending who they were as athletes and activists to open up opportunities for others.

These champions of civil rights channeled the intersectionality of their identities into a positive force for good; inspiring their community as well as each other through their unique achievements. Each journey to greatness on their own, yet used their time in the spotlight to shine that light on the struggles of their fellow black Americans.
