Film screening of “Mind/Game: The Unquiet Journey of Chamique Holdsclaw” and lecture by and discussion with Chamique Holdsclaw

Young Student Center - Mabel Brown room
Friday, · -

Holdsclaw was dubbed the "Female Michael Jordan," and like MJ, she was expected by many to use her electrifying talents to raise the league's popularity and visibility. But as chronicled in the documentary, "Mind/Game: The Unquiet Journey of Chamique Holdsclaw," her battle with mental illness would eventually trump any opponent she would ever face on the hardwood.

Just as she worked to become the best female hoops player of her time, she continues to work to be a champion. In the film, "Mind/Game," she explains how basketball was once her coping mechanism that has since been replaced with a strict routine of eating healthy, exercising daily, quiet time and medication. And nowadays, the Queens, New York, native is traveling the country to advocate for mental health awareness and to dispel myths along the way.
