Meet Mariah White, an exceptional college student-athlete who was named 2021’s Arthur Ashe Jr. Female Sports Scholar of the Year in April this year.
The Ashe program is part of Diverse’s quarter-century legacy of recognizing young, outstanding minority men and women who have distinguished themselves in their academic and athletic pursuits.
Of the nearly 1,000 scholar-athletes nominated, White was chosen for best exemplifying the standards of scholarship, athleticism, and humanitarianism. Tune in as she shares her biggest sources of inspiration and how her passion on the court translates to her endeavors off the court.
We hope you enjoy getting to know her better in this sit-down conversation with your host Ralph Newell.

This is an amazing podcast. I am glad you are stepping up and talking about a sensitive topic that is not talked about enough. Thank you for sharing this information. It effects students in higher education and the effects carry over into the workforce when the students graduate. Some students are tainted because there was not enough taught on diversity and the students perspective are skewed.
What an amazing podcast! I’ve received so much value from these conversations and experiences. This podcast is shedding light on some very important topics, especially in todays climate. I have been loving every moment! Diverse In The Margins is most definitely worth the listen!
Such an amazing platform. So many milestones have been made and so many more to come.
I like that the episodes aren’t too long but are still very informative
