Jason Collins - First Out: Being Openly Gay in a Major Team Sport

In 2013, Jason Collins made history. On top of his storied basketball career, he was the first male player of any major American team sport to come out as gay. Jason was well-known for his leadership on and off the court. That reputation stands strong even after he retired from the league. Today, Jason is a steadfast advocate for the LGBTQ community.  Jason sat down with host Jay Ruderman to talk about coming to terms with his sexuality, his coming out journey, and the roles allies can play.   For video episodes, watch on www.youtube.com/@therudermanfamilyfoundation   Apple Watch Raffle Instructions (Deadline 9/1/24) Rate and Review All About Change on Apple Podcasts Email a screenshot of your review to [e-mail] before September 1st, 2024.
