Maya Yoshida: "Everybody needs to work together"

In 2021, fans made discriminatory gestures towards Japan captain Maya Yoshida during a post-match interview.

Never underestimate the human impact of discrimination. For Maya, #ItsPersonal.

Staying silent on racism only perpetuates it.

Stories of discrimination like @MayaYoshida3's are sadly all too common, but must be told and told again, because the human impact is too harming to ignore.

Listen, learn, call it out.#ItsPersonal
