Episode 47: Athlete Moms, Athlete Activists, and Women are Athletes Worthy of Coverage

This week, Amira Rose Davis, Brenda Elsey, and Jessica Luther discuss Serena Williams and other athlete moms, including those in college. Jessica interviews Molly Yanity, assistant professor of journalism at Quinnipiac University, about what’s really wrong with the coverage of women’s basketball and women’s sports more generally. Then Amira, Brenda, and Jessica turn to professional leagues’ responses to athlete activism (which includes an update on Kaepernick). As always, you’ll hear the Burn Pile, Bad Ass GIRLS of the Week, and what’s good in our worlds.
