Jasmine Jordan reveals the reason behind pursuing change

Apparently, Jasmine’s education at Syracuse University led her to an important realization.She realized there were very few women in her batch.

The new mother said, “I even looked around my classroom there’s only about eight to ten women and the class is like thirty-forty. So I’m like okay, this is interesting like maybe this isn’t a field that is known to us women or we didn’t get exposure to us as women and that’s what I want to see how can I break that barrier.”

She was not happy with the disparity and chose to do something about it. Now, big in her field, Jasmine serves as an example to many young women around the country. Jasmine is all for fighting for women’s equality. Despite not being in the WNBA she has uplifted the women’s basketball league by promoting several WNBA stars.
