Many College Gymnastics coaches are sharing a message on Twitter.
And asking 5 others to join them.
A few examples:
I’M ALL IN! I will continue to oppose racism and hate! Asking @cbrooks_wpr @that_CEO @_jessnicole24 @corymtomlinson and @MadisonKocian to join and nominate 5 others!

Don’t know that this does any harm but another push up or ice bucket challenge, without even the attention-getting visual, to repost a couple words isn’t going to make any sort of change. The potential downside is a bandwagon approach dilutes actual personal reflection and change. It’s easy to cut-and-paste some text. Much harder to actually grapple with what you have done, and what you need to do better.
