England’s iconic soccer leagues are powered by Black talent. But when it comes to coaching, former players say they face the same discrimination they did on the pitch.

The Canadian phenom stunned perhaps the greatest female swimmer in the sport’s history, winning by nearly six seconds.

The bill, which would have to clear the full state legislature before reaching the desk of Gov. Gavin Newsom, would take effect for the youngest players in 2025.

Her victory added to her gold medal haul and brought with it a piece of history. But for Ledecky, her time represented the thing that matters most: progress.
