WNBA players have evidenced leadership on so many issues this year, especially Covid-19 and the considerable challenge of vaccine hesitancy. I was so proud of my rockstar former student (and WNBA star), Elizabeth Williams, who led the charge on a strategic education session for WNBA players. I was pleased to join to discuss strategies to reduce hesitancy.
As I noted in the Washington Post piece: "...athletes in our country hold a very prized position and have a great opportunity to influence large segments of populations who are most at risk.”
“The WNBA can lead the charge,” Bennett continued, “and frankly, we need the men to follow."
So proud of the leadership of @E_Williams_1 and the @WNBA in combatting Covid-19! I was honored to join @SwamyGeeta and play a small part. #goduke
