Why this petition matters

The hormone regulations setup by the World Athletics organization is clearly one of the systematic form of modern racism. The majority of black female athletes naturally will have higher levels of testosterone and that shouldn’t be the reason they should be discriminated against. Fairness is accepting a human being the way they are and not discriminating them because their natural hormones are higher than others. So if black women were all taller than white females then tall black women won’t play sports like basketball? 

World Athletics remains committed to a centuries-old, white supremacist notion that defines “womanhood” in terms of the white, cisgendered female body, rendering everyone else, especially women of African descent, socially unacceptable aberrations.

Anything that puts females of color to an advantage in Athletics is scrutinized and evaluated to put them on the level they perceive as normal or fair. How can fairness be associated with not accepting the natural biological nature of an athlete? First it was Caster Semenya (South African), then Burundian runner Francine Niyonsaba and now two Namibian female athletes Christine Mboma and Beatrice Masilingi  who have been disqualified from Olympics due to naturally high testosterone levels.

This is pure systematic discrimination of women of color and everyone is aware of it but because an organization tends to discriminate against women of color then it’s fine. So then create hormone levels categories, so that women with naturally high testosterone levels compete with each other and those with lower hormone levels compete in another categories. 

The hormone regulations by the World Athletics doesn’t represent fairness in all women from all races but appears to be in favor of non-colored women. If it is illegal for someone to use steroids to increase their testosterone levels, then how is it legal to reduce someone’s natural testosterone?

Let’s stop the practices of systematic racism being practiced by world organizations that put fairness on their brands but practice the opposite.
