Description

The cartoon shows South Africa's Caster Semenya winning a race at the World Championships. Pieces of text surrounding the runner read 'World ChampHEon?' 'World ChampHERon?' and 'The IAAF's hidden a-gender'. Wordplays on 'gender' and 'agenda'. Refers to Caster Semenya, an 18-year-old from Limpopo, South Africa, who won the women's 800 metres at the IAAF World Championships in Berlin in August but subsequent media reports have raised questions about her gender.
