When asked by Don Lemon on Thursday if she ll engage in any protests while competing in Tokyo, Olympic activist Gwen Berry played coy. She kept mentioning we ll see, and initially said she wouldn t answer. But she ultimately expanded on her answer. We ll see. You know, it just depends. It depends. You know, everything is a spur of the moment. It depends on how I m feeling and depends on what I want to do in that moment and what I want to do for my people in that moment. And I will do whatever comes upon me and whatever is in my heart, she ultimately said. That was Thursday, when, as the CNN hosted mentioned, the International Olympic Committee had a ban on such protests and demonstrations. On Friday, though, reports came out that that had changed.
