Abstract, Summary, or Creative Statement
The purpose of the research project was to identify an issue in our world related to racial, social, or ethnic injustices as well as leadership. I chose to relate my project to the sports world because it is an area that I am also very passionate about. Through my research I learned that that have been many changes and advancements over the years to promote women and people of racial minorities into leadership positions, however there is still a lot of work to be done.
