An argument at a gym has sparked a debate about race and gym etiquette. This began with a video shared by Inemesit Graham, a Black personal trainer and content creator in Yellowknife, Canada, that went viral on Instagram.
Graham said she was working out with five other Black women, combining weightlifting with laps around the gym’s indoor track, when an unidentified white male member allegedly pushed past one of her friends to grab dumbbells. According to Graham, he did not apologize or say “excuse me.” The women chose not to challenge him at the time and went to run a lap instead.
