Bigotry won the battle, but the tide of war turned toward Justice
Thank you, BBC for airing this magnificent story. I was a freshman in high school in a different state and knew nothing of the story in 1969. These 14 men did not have any idea of the consequences of what would happen to them. So their standing up for justice was an act of inherent courage because of the, wonderful people that they were and are. This is an important story in the history of relationships between bigoted white America and black Americans, full of heart, soul, courage, and wisdom beyond their years. I urge all sports fans, and all those interested in the history of racism in the United States to listen to this 4-part podcast.

The Black 14
I was in high school several states away from Wyoming when this occurred but never knew anything about it—I did, however, know about the Black arms raised at the Mexico City Olympics and the civil rights demonstrations of that time. Thanks for sharing this event; I feel so sad for what these brave men experienced, based solely on skin color—and this is still occurring today 60+ years later. These 4 episodes were well done!

I love BA Parker and she did such a great job. It’s a short podcast that gave me everything I needed to know without overstepping it’s time.

Incredible story
The podcast is so engaging. The story is so intriguing, inspiring, frustrating, gut-wrenching, triumphant, and horrifying it captivated me. Thanks for doing a great job chronicling this important history.

Old bate and switch
Get to listen to two episodes and then put it behind a paywall. It’s so old and ruining podcasting. Time for a new forum, corporations killing another great thing

Grateful
This story was so informative and engaging. As a white American woman in my 40s, I’ve never heard this story before. I’m so grateful to yall for bringing light to this story. Interrupting racism in America requires us to learn from the past.

Trying too hard
Presenters for each story are not the best. Over the top in trying to hook the listeners in.
