Rowing in Color
Denise Aquino and Patricia Destine are two women of color who are dedicated to promoting diversity within the sport of rowing. Both are former rowers turned coxswains turned coaches in the sport. Together they have almost 25 years of experience on the erg, at regattas, in the launch, or at the boathouse. No stranger to navigation or microphones, these former coxswains amplify what it’s like to navigate the topic of race within the white-dominated sport of rowing. Like most bodies of water, the tide is changing; there are more American rowers of color than there has ever been. You’ll hear from people who represented the U.S. in international races to folks who just started to row this year. Tune in to listen to a mix of interviews, special co-hosts, and tag-team shows from hosts, Denise and Patricia. Whether a rower or not, you’re not going to want to miss. Hit subscribe and enjoy.

This an awesome podcast for everyone to hear! The topics and people who have presented and shared are truly an inspiration and great reminders that there are people out there in the rowing community working to better amplify Diversity and Inclusion. My two young daughters are rowers and were so hyped to see the photos on social media and to listen to podcasts. We are Native American and appreciate the Rowing In Color podcast hosts greatly! Please keep up the great work, we love it!!
A GIFT to the rowing world!

Two incredible members of the rowing community exposing issues of racism (among other isms) within the sport and elevating the voices and experiences of rowers of color. As a white rower, I wish this podcast had been around when I was in high school - it’s taught me so much on my journey of allyship with rowers of color. Thank you, Denise and Patricia, for all that you do!
What Rowing Needed

Ever since the launch of Rowing In Color I felt there was a significant positive shift in the rowing community! The impact is felt not from just what they are doing but what AND how they are doing it. (“It” being amplifying voices that might not usually be heard within the rowing community.) Keep listening if you aren’t already! Rowing in Color changed my life and brought comfort, relatability and hope for the future of generations to come in our sport!
Leading the way

In two short years, Rowing In Color has made a profound impact in the world of rowing. The podcast amplifies voices of rowers of color from across the country and even internationally. You’ll hear about diversity and inclusion straight from the people who have the lived experience. You’ll hear from a variety of athletes in a variety of roles from a variety of backgrounds. They most recently covered ocean rowers, proving that they’re always at the forefront of what’s new and exciting in our sport. On top of that, this podcast is easy listening while multitasking and my number one choice for an uplifting message. The topics may be serious but the hosts’ laughter and hope is contagious. Rowing is changing and Rowing In Color is leading the way.
