What I did and what I learned about my topic, activism, social justice work or civil and human rights work from this fieldwork?[:: :
Yesterday, I presented with my social justice group, about our topic. We had many articles on the issue of the gender pay gap and how women get treated as athletes. I was very confident while presenting because I worked very hard on the slideshow. My group did a fantastic job collaborating. I believe it’s important to note that the lowest-paid player in the NBA gets paid 925,000 yearly and they don’t even get playing time 90% of the time. However, women who are star players and give it their all every day get paid 100,000-200,000 yearly.
