Women’s sports activist aims to 'platform' knee-taking fencer as the latest winner of courage award
XX-XY Athletics founder and CEO Jennifer Sey spoke out about why she was awarding a female fencer with a courage award after the athlete's stance against a transgender opponent in a match.
Sey announced during an interview with "America Reports" that she is honoring fencer Stephanie Turner, who was disqualified in March from competing in a tournament at the University of Maryland after she took a knee rather than compete against a transgender athlete.
"We call them our Courage Wins Champions," Sey said.
