OnBoard Skate

Skateboarding and social justice, culture, history, spaces and places, politics, ideology, corporatisation

@change_charter Yes. Very few non-profit/sports organisations invest in defining the social impact their programmes are having on individuals and/or communities.

[OnBoard Skate @onboardsk8]

@change_charter I agree. I have been to numerous sports conferences where the speakers are just cheer leaders for the status quo. Not once have I heard someone stand up and challenge the existing sports delivery model despite it's clear failings.
