@blackgymnastsinhistory: Black Gymnasts in History: The Awesome - Dominique Dawes ✨ Dominique Dawes was the *first* Black female gymnast to win an individual Olympic medal (floor exercise - bronze, 1996) and also the *first* American female gymnast to compete in 3 Olympics (1992, 1996, 2000) AND medal in every single one. She’s also the queen of back-to-back tumbling…because the Code of Points does not reward connected tumbling like it used to, we may never see tumbling like this again 🥹 View our full timeline for Black Gymnasts in History: https://wendyhilliard.org/what-we-do/black-gymnasts-in-history/ #BlackHistoryMonth #BlackGymnastsInHistory #gymnastics #DominiqueDawes #olympians
