Olympic gold medalist Alysa Liu is opening up about the political issues she cares about most — and she’s not holding back.

In a new interview with Rolling Stone, Liu said the causes that matter most to her include “climate, election things, Black Lives Matter, Stop Asian Hate, ICE protests… a ton of that stuff.” She added that “more empathy needs to happen, for sure.”

Liu — whose family immigrated to the United States — also said she believes it’s important to recognize the flaws in government and stand up for immigrant rights, noting that she has attended protests and spoken out about issues affecting marginalized communities.

The comments come as more athletes use their platforms to speak out on politics — a trend that continues to spark debate over whether sports stars should stay out of politics or use their influence to push for change.

California Substance Abuse Treatment Facility and State Prison inmate Jonathan Watson, who was already serving a life sentence for murder, attacked two other prisoners — David Bobb and Graham De Luis-Conti — both of whom were serving life sentences for crimes against children under 14.

According to reports, Watson later admitted to the killings and wrote that he believed he had “done the world a favor.” One victim died the same day, while the other died days later in hospital.

The case was investigated as a double homicide inside the prison, and it also drew attention to the reality that inmates convicted of crimes against children often face serious dangers behind bars.
