EXPERIENCE: Game Changers- Women and Sports
Sports are integral to American national identity whether as metaphor, cultural past time, or economic driver. Though Americans take sports seriously, women and men have had very different experiences with sports participation. Competition—the core element of the national obsession with sports—has been problematic for America to accept when applied towards women. This exhibit from the National Women’s History Museum, explores the cultural, economic, social, and political barriers women have overcome to play sports and the challenges remaining today.
