The CDC reports that Black individuals under the age of 30 face a significantly higher risk of drowning, being 1.5 times more likely to drown compared to their White peers. Recognizing the historical context of aquatic segregation that has contributed to this disparity, Black swimmers are leading efforts to provide swimming instruction and water safety education. These initiatives aim to break down barriers, empower communities, and ensure equal access to essential skills for water safety, ultimately working towards a more equitable future.
