    Re-imagining Title IX: An opportunity to flex our civic muscles

    June 23, 2022
    Title IX

    Solomon is on the faculty of Stanford University's design school and a creator of civic futures programs like Vote by Design, Building America’s Teammates and AllVoteNoPlay.org,

    In anticipation of Title IX’s upcoming anniversary, I sat down with Dr. Victoria Jackson, a sports historian and clinical assistant professor of history in the School of Historical, Philosophical, and Religious Studies at Arizona State University. Jackson is also a former Pac-12 and NCAA champion runner. She writes and speaks about the intersection of sport and society, exploring how the games we play (and watch) tell us much about the communities – local, national and global – in which we live.

    As a civic futurist and creator of the AllVoteNoPlay.org civic playbook for student athletes, I wanted to explore the historic significance of Title IX and the implications of this 50-year milestone for the future of women’s athletics. Jackson’s Ph.D. dissertation explores the history and impact of Title IX, and she is actively working on programs and research to make college sports more equitable, more sustainable, and more inclusive.
