Athletes demand an apology for past punishments, as USOPC delicately tries to respond to swirling controversy.
: “I want an apology letter .. mailed .. just like you and the IOC MAILED ME WHEN YOU PUT ME ON PROBATION.. stop playing with me.”
“I feel like they’ve tried to de-escalate the situation as much as possible,” she said. “I feel like they’ve done their best to hear us out and understand where systematic oppression and sports coincide, and they’ve tried to delegate the dos and don’ts of the rules and discuss what some of the rules are, how they are and why they are.
Xiao said the rule is somewhat vague and should be revisited — “it’s not clearly defined what the punishments will be, what the criteria is or what constitutes a political protest,” he said — but for now, he says the USOPC feels its hands are tied by the charter; the IOC requires the organization to respond to any violations, such of Imboden’s and Berry’s Pan Am protests.
