Athletistic / Figure skating. Six times French champion, black figure skater Mahé-Bérénice Meite took last place in the second stage of the ISU Grand Prix in Canada. The 29-year-old athlete presented a program against racism.

The Frenchwoman’s short program is performed to Michael Jackson’s composition They Don’t Care Abou Us. During the song, excerpts from news reports about the murder of George Floyd are used. Remember that the murder of a black criminal by the police caused a stir in the United States.

But the Frenchwoman executed her program poorly. She missed all the jumps. She also had a serious fall on the triple loop.
The judges rated the performance at just 41.65 points. Thus, the athlete took the last, 12th place in the tournament.
