Growing up Justice always played basketball with her brothers. Unfortunately, she was unable to purchase her own basketball shoes and had to always use her brother’s shoes. Having her own pair of colorful basketball shoes will make her feel a sense of belonging, being that she can actually play knowing these shoes represent her individuality. This will also allow for her to feel a sense of connection with her brothers being that they aren’t exactly in contact with her right now. Justice is looking forward to joining her high school basketball team and wearing her brother’s old number on her jersey. As a young black girl interested in basketball, Justice has often faced challenges because basketball is a male dominant sport. Overall, these shoes will empower Justice to not change who she is and embrace her family, culture, and athleticism.
