We created this podcast in recognition that there are a number of podcasts for the American "left," but many of them focus heavily on the organizing of social democrats, progressives, and liberal democrats.

50 years ago, opportunities for women and girls in sport were few and far between. Enter Title IX.

While this wasn't directly intended to affect the male-dominated sports culture, it opened the doors for equality on the field. This limited series features in-depth interviews with women who lived through the cultural shift that Title IX represented, including icons like Jo ...
