(CNN) Australian basketball star Liz Cambage has threatened to boycott the Tokyo Olympics while speaking out against the lack of racial diversity in promotional photos of the Australian Olympic team. "I've said it once I've said it a million times," Cambage wrote under a promotional shot of athletes first posted by clothing brand Jockey, which is sponsoring the Australian Olympic team. "HOW AM I MEANT TO REPRESENT A COUNTRY THAT DOESNT EVEN REPRESENT ME." In a separate post, Cambage wrote: "y'all really do anything to remove POCs [people of color] from the forefront when it's black athletes leading the pack. "Until I see y'all doin more @ausolympicteam imma sit this one out."
