Join us in this special Black History Month episode of “Dadages,” where we explore the impactful stories of Jean Washington and Chick Harris. Through the voices of their children, Maya Washington and Tirana Harris, we uncover how these two men not only excelled in their sports careers but also played pivotal roles in the desegregation of college football and the NFL. This episode delves into the intertwining of sports, social change, and the power of legacy.
Stay tuned for Part 2 of our conversation with Maya and Tirana, where we’ll dive deeper into the personal stories behind the public figures and how the next generation is carrying forward the torch of change and inclusion in sports and beyond.
