Kojo Nnanmdi will welcome Hudson Taylor to his WAMU show today at 1pm EDT.
Trash-talking and machismo have always been fixtures of competitive sports. But a growing chorus of athletes and sports executives is trying to combat the darker side of that culture: anti-gay slurs and homophobia. Howard Ross discusses the culture of sport, and we meet a straight athlete working to build gay-straight support networks.
Guests
Howard Ross
Diversity consultant; Principal, Cook Ross
