The Second Wave, The Liberation Movement
I go into some awesome people who were the ignitors in the Liberation movement... Why women felt suffocated in their new roles in society and who starting singing or writing about being unhappy.
The First Wave
I dive into Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton and their start as abolitionists and how they ended up fighting for white women to vote. I go into a few people that were instrumental to gaining women's rights and a personal note on how not being seen or heard translates into how we are treating our trans youth today in sport.
Feminism Part Deux
I dive into the social construct of feminism and sexism leading up to and through the Industrial Revolution and touch upon the victory of the USA Women's National Soccer Team gender equity battle, as well as the NY Liberty facing a fine for flying charter.
Diving Into Social Constructs
I dig into social constructs and start looking into my own beliefs and briefly touch about sexism as a female playing sport. I define and give examples of social constructs and start questioning my beliefs.
A Thank You to Coaches
The speech I delivered at the United Coaches convention recently, a thank you to all the coaches I have had and some of the people who have shaped who I am and how I see the world.
