#001: Welcome to Rowing in Color, where we publish interviews from Black History Month only a month later. We kick the season off by interviewing Dwayne Adams, Sr. He is the founder and executive director of Breaking Barriers Rowing &amp; Fitness, which is a non profit organization located in Delaware. Its mission is to help youth (both with and without disability) and senior citizens through the sport of rowing. As a teenager, Dwayne was shot in the head, leaving him legally blind. He went on to become an elite adaptive rower, winning a bronze medal in the World Rowing Championship in Seville, Spain, in 2002. Hosts, Patricia and Denise, talk to Dwayne about his journey to rowing, advice to young rowers, and what it means to be a black man in a white sport. For more on his organization, check out www.breakingbarriersde.org
