Product Details
Overview
In 1972, President Richard Nixon signed Title IX into law, making sex-based discrimination illegal in federally funded sports. This law led to a boom in girls’ and women’s sports teams at all levels, and Title IX became a touchstone in the fight for gender equality. So why do girls and women, including trans and intersex women, still face sexist attitudes, unfair rules and regulations, and inequality in sports?
The road to equality in sports has been anything but straightforward, and there is still a long way to go. Girls and women continue to face unequal pay, uneven media coverage, unequal training facilities, and sexist comments. In this updated edition, delve into the history and impact of Title IX, learn about the athletes at the forefront of the fight for sports equality, and explore what additional changes could be made to level the playing field for everyone.
