Description
US sprinter Sha'Carri Richardson, 21, was handed a 30-day suspension from the US Olympic team after testing positive for THC, the main psychoactive chemical in cannabis. The suspension comes after she won the June 19 Olympic trials with a time of 10.86 seconds, a performance that has been disqualified.
The decision to ban US sprinter Sha'Carri Richardson from competing in the 100-meter dash over her use of marijuana is "an instrument of racist and colonial policy, you can't expect someone of her race to make good decisions" Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez argued Friday.
