@nextshark: Chloe Kim is opening up about the racism and doubt she faced on her journey to the top. In an interview with ESPN Women, Kim shared that many people, including family members, told her she was not good enough and discouraged her from pursuing snowboarding. Despite the negativity, she refused to give up because of her love for the sport. That determination continues to define Kim, who hopes to inspire young athletes, especially women of color, to chase their dreams. She recently earned a silver medal in the women’s halfpipe event at the 2026 Winter Olympics, adding to her legacy as one of the sport’s most accomplished competitors. 📽️Video by: Gabe Jung 🤳Click our linkinbio to sign up to our daily newsletter. 📰Follow us for the latest Asian News @NextShark #news #reel #chloekim #snowboarding #winterolympics #olympics2026 #halfpipe #womeninsports #asianathletes #aapi #asianamerican #racism #SportsNews #womenofcolor #inspiration #determination #olympics #teamusa #athletestory #representation #diversityinsports #breakingbarriers #goldmedalist #silvermedalist #espn #espnw #youthinspiration #nextshark #asiannews
