On Sunday, the Notre Dame women’s basketball team will wear custom shoes and a pregame shirt to promote racial justice in its nationally televised game against the No. 6 Louisville Cardinals. The shirt and shoes feature art from local artist Kamika Perry, a Jamaican immigrant who has lived in the South Bend area for more than 10 years.
Perry calls the artwork on the T-shirt “Hope.” It depicts a young Black woman wearing a Notre Dame jersey with her hair tied in the shape of two basketballs. The back of the shirt bears the message, “We hope, we inspire, we believe,” a quote from coach Niele Ivey.
