Making Moves Ep. 11: Gender Equity in Sport

This conversation on gender equity in sport details the importance of celebrating the success of Title IX, contributions from the AIAW, and the move towards sport for all. However, there must also be the acknowledgment of the disproportionate representation of BIPOC women. Resources, space, representation, and access are all matters to consider when it comes to who can partake in sport. Gender equity seems to be a source of pride, yet leaps and bounds remain to achieve this scenario.
