At 34, Jade Boho is shining in the Spanish female league. The player has managed to find a gap in the elite of female football and made the most of her time at 'Rioja Televisión' to make a necessary social complaint.
"I am a woman, black, not brown, which people say black, not brown, and a footballer. It was the worst thing that could happen to you. I would leave the games crying from so many insults and so much humiliation. But, honestly, it made me much stronger".
Jade Boho confessed that she has already accepted that that usually happens on football pitches: "Sometimes you'd be left saying, 'Did I really hear that? But you learn to live with it. Those were my beginnings, apart from being a tomboy..."
"Society has been evolving. Slowly? Yes, but because there was no visibility and it was unknown and rare for everyone. When visibility has been given, society's acceptance has been noted. It has to be a progression", she added.
"I do notice a big change from my beginnings to today. You won't hear a child telling you 'where that girl with the ball is going'. These things have become very normal. I wish that I had lived in this era", the Logroño Femenino player concluded.
