In 2019, she broke the 100m record at the NCAA (National College Athletic Association) championships for Louisiana State University as a freshman. This marked the rise of famous American track and field sprinter Sha’Carri Richardson at age 19. She has since had a thriving career, going on to represent the US in many competitions. However, she has also concurrently been involved in controversies, hampering her career more than once. In the latest update, Richardson made a public appeal for better understanding and being kind towards her.

Taking to her Instagram, Sha’Carri Richardson wrote a heartfelt caption in her story. It was as if she was making a confession in the most polite manner and urging everyone to deal with her in a better manner.

A humble plea by Sha’Carri Richardson while accepting her flaws

Sha’Carri Richardson wrote in her Instagram story, “I am mature, yet immature. Sometimes I have good mindset, but sometimes I have toxicity. Just correct me in a RESPECTFUL WAY”. The words had a resounding plea that was unmistakable. Richardson didn’t explicitly mention the specific circumstance with regard to which she posted this story.

One of the first controversies to strike Richardson gave a big pushback to her career. After testing positive for THC metabolites i.e. cannabis, Sha’Carri Richardson could not participate in the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. She had initially qualified for the 100-meter dash, but a month-long suspension kept her out for the most part of the tournament. Richardson could, however, compete in the 4×100 meters relay, but she failed to qualify for that.

Sadly, this wasn’t the end of all controversies for Richardson. A very public spat occurred with her while in the air. Here’s how that went down.

Richardson got into yet another controversy in the recent past

There was a heated argument between Richardson and American Air. She recorded the video at the time and posted it on Instagram which went viral. Richardson was recording a video of herself on the flight before take-off when she was asked to stop filming by a male flight attendant. Things escalated from there and she hardly found any support from her fellow passengers. She was eventually escorted out of that flight. The fans’ verdict is still not out as to who was truly guilty in that incident.

Nevertheless, it caught public attention and brought heavy criticism for Richardson. It all brings back to her plea, quite possibly to those people who have disrespected her for a long time. However, a kind appeal never hurt anyone.
