Five Questions

We take a deep dive into the events of the 2018 U.S. Open Women's Final on Saturday between Serena Williams and Naomi Osaka. In such a high stakes situation, who has the greater responsibility... the athlete or the official? We discuss if there is a level of subjectivity when it comes to being an official and if it's applied fairly, if Carlos Ramos' actions were a result of sexist actions or an overall sexist culture and if our society is too quick to cry racism or sexism when something doesn't go a certain way (see: Nicki Minaj). Crew: Shawn Hardie, Midtown Mo, Christina Tapper (writer/editor for a web site that may or may not rhyme with Creature Deport),  Jeff J. from Nonstop Culture/FanBros and former Nigerian Olympic track and field athlete Idara Otu.
