WNBA team based in Atlanta, founded 2008
The White House has issued an executive order directing sidewalk signs around the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History to warn visitors about alleged inaccuracies in the museum’s portrayal of American history and to point to sources for a corrected narrative. Smithsonian leadership defends its scholarship and fullness of America’s story as Republicans press for hearings and potential changes on Capitol Hill.
The WNBA has suspended Tempo head coach Sandy Brondello for one game after she called Angel Reese a “protected species” during a game. Reese says there is no place for discrimination and Brondello has apologized. The incident has sparked broader discussion on officiating, accountability, and race in the league.
