Not all claims for 'racial justice' are created equal. While 'racial justice' became an important term deployed by various sport figures and organisations, there have been few deliberations of its actual meanings and/or connotations. I argue that the underlying goals, visions, and theories of change of different 'racial justice' enunciations can vary significantly and that it is therefore urgent to unpick the seemingly assumed coherence across different discursive spaces. In this reflective piece, I tentatively map the possible interpretations of 'racial justice' enunciated in sport and discuss the potentials and limitations of this term in the long struggles towards creating a (sport) world free of racial injustices
