Personal life
Her parents are James Quinn, an African-American man, and María Milagros Camacho, a Puerto Rican woman. Both competed in athletics at Baptist College (now Charleston Southern University) in South Carolina, United States of America, with her father competing in hurdles and her mother as a sprint runner and long jumper.[17] Camacho-Quinn's mother, María Milagros Camacho, is from Trujillo Alto, Puerto Rico, which made Camacho-Quinn eligible to represent Puerto Rico in international competitions, including in the Olympics.[18][19] National Football League (NFL) player Robert Quinn is her brother.[20]
Jasmine graduated from Fort Dorchester High School, in North Charleston, South Carolina.[21]
Identity
Born and raised in South Carolina, Camacho-Quinn decided later in life that she wanted to know more about her mother's side of the family, who live in Trujillo Alto, Puerto Rico.[22] She identifies as a Puerto Rican.[23] In July 2021, she tweeted about her mother, "You see my mommy? The PUERTO RICAN woman that birthed me?"[24] and stated "I am Puerto Rican" in a video posted by the Puerto Rican Olympic Committee.[25][26]
Camacho-Quinn is the first Afro-Puerto Rican to win a gold medal. This was celebrated by social anthropologist Bárbara Abadía-Rexach, who stated "Camacho-Quinn’s victory is a pioneering example for black girls on the island that shows them they can achieve whatever they set their minds to, despite the "systemic barriers" they will encounter due to their gender, race and ethnicity."[25]
