We’re celebrating black history in sport on Unbeaten throughout February, showing our support of the Black and other marginalized communities and their important contribution to sport.
Documentary series The Rising will be the highlight in our Black History Month scheduling which is an inspiring documentary series celebrating the contributions of black athletes worldwide. The series is augmented by a selection of documentary, biography and lifestyle programming including the Flashpoint, The Immortals, Against The Odds, Dream Teams and more, featuring the incredible stories of sport’s superstars who are black or are of colour – telling their stories on how they overcome prejudice and adversity to became role models for generations to come.
Saturday February 19th, we observe Black History Day and we’re marking the occasion with a twenty-four-hour block of documentary programming that features a wide range of Black athletes and athletes of color.
