Image Descriptions under the cut!
[Image description: This is an infographic broken up into three smaller images. The background is a shade of light yellow. Text alternates between black and white per section.
First image: A light blue background has the words “Black History Month-Day 3″ in bold yellow type. “Female Sports Achievements” is right aligned underneath this text in white.
A dark grey bar beneath the blue top holds the words “Olympians” in bold, white type face.
Beneath the dark grey bar, is a yellow background. Text on the left hand side says “Alice Coachman” in bold, white type face. In blue type, it says Became the second American woman, and the first Black woman to win an Olympic gold medal in 1948. She won her medal in the high jump competition.”
On the right hand side, a black and white picture of Alice Coachman, who is a dark skin Black woman. She can be seen in a version of sports athleisure.
Second image: A yellow background, with the darker yellow on top. On the left hand side of the image, a color photo of Flo-Jo can be seen. She is a black woman, wearing gray track uniform, and her long, red acrylic nails can be seen as she leans on her palm. On the right hand side, bold, white type face says “Florence Griffith Joyner, or Flo-Jo” In blue text beneath, it says “4 time Olympic gold medalist, Flo-Jo is still considered one of the fastest women of all time, with her records from 1988 still standing.”
Below this, on the lighter yellow background, bold, white type face says ”Venus and Serena Williams.” This is on the left hand side, above blue type, where it says “The tennis playing sisters have constantly broken barriers and records. Between the two of them, they have won 30 Grand Slam titles, and four Olympic gold medals. They won these awards from playing doubles and playing singles.” On the right hand side, in color, is an image of Venus and Serena Williams. They are both dark skin, black women, who are wearing their tennis outfits and waving to the camera.
Third image: Below this, a darker yellow background can be seen. On the left hand side, a color photo of Simone Biles can be seen. She is a dark skin, black woman, and she is wearing a full sleeved, bright red leotard and she is holding her arms in the air.
On the right hand side, bold, white type face says “Simone Biles.” Below that, in blue text it says “Simone is a Olympic level gymnast. She currently holds the American record with being the only woman to win 4 gold medals in a single competition in 2018. Overall, she has 20 medals to her name.”
