Ep 5: Grief & Relief of Coming Out in the NBA w/ Jason Collins

  • サマリー

  • Jason Collins is a retired 12-year NBA veteran who’s played for franchises like the New Jersey Nets, the Boston Celtics and the Brooklyn Nets. He was also the first active player in any of the big four leagues–the NBA, NFL, MLB and NHL–to come out as gay. His coming out on the cover of Sports Illustrated in 2013 was a rare moment in sports history let alone the NBA–where there has yet to be another active player to come out as gay since. Host Victoria Fortune sits down with Jason to talk about what it was like for him to navigate life in the closet in his adolescence and later as an NBA player. Jason discusses how he got the courage to come out, homophobia baked into sports culture, the supporters who surprised him, and rebuilding his relationship with church.
