Title IX became law 50 years ago. Here’s why it still matters.
"Notably, Title IX was never intended to affect sports," writes Kelcey Ervick. "We continue to fight over the interpretation and application of this law, which also covers sexual assault and gender identity, and there is still much to be done. Although Title IX was conceived by a diverse group of women, it has disproportionately benefited White women, like me."
"As we celebrate Title IX's 50th anniversary, we should also renew our commitment to uphold its protections and fight discrimination in all forms."
