What I did and what I learned about my topic, activism, social justice work or civil and human rights work from this fieldwork?:

On 1/23/24 we met with Nancy Hogshead-Makar the CEO of Champion Women and Alistair Casey the COO of Champion Women. We talked with them about the broad topic of gender Sexism Against Women in Sports, and they gave us the opportunity to meet with them over Zoom. We asked them questions about their current projects as they shared links with graphs and information through the Zoom chat. They also asked us questions about our opinions and where in our school we see inequality in women’s sports. As their title lX project asks is your school treating women fairly? They shared with us data they collected from high schools, colleges, and universities and determined the financial gap, in scholarship dollars, between schools and gender equality. They also had a high school student (who is also working with them) sit in on our Zoom meeting. She later after emailed us and gave us a project that was related to the content we discussed in the meeting. They even talked with us about giving us more opportunities with them in the future. We appreciate them very much for their help so far and hopefully can’t wait to work more with them in the future.
