Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some of the most influential women in sports tell their stories of courage, adversity, and triumph to trailblazer Bonnie-Jill Laflin. A half-century after Title IX legislation leveled the playing field for women and girls, the time has come to celebrate the lives and careers of some of the most notable groundbreaking women in sports, while also encouraging future generations to make history of their own. In a League of Her Own: Celebrating Female Firsts in Sports shares the stories of nineteen impactful women in sports, including Billie Jean King, Danica Patrick, Jackie Joyner-Kersee, Laila Ali, Jeanie Buss, and Mary Lou Retton. These iconic women open up to Bonnie-Jill Laflin, herself a trailblazer as the first and only female NBA scout, about the sobering realities females face in the sports world and the many obstacles they had to overcome. But they also celebrate the amazing support they received from colleagues, friends, family, and the women who came before them, and impart their own desires to inspire young women through their stories. In a League of Her Own gives these remarkable women a voice to share their experiences across the sports industry. They discuss such issues as the pressures of social media, the sexism that still exists in boardrooms and locker rooms, and their hopes for closer equality in the sports space. Their journeys are each unique, but together, they have changed the face of sports and culture forever.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As writers such as Virginia Woolf, Audre Lorde, and Anais Nin recognized, keeping a journal is a powerful tool of creative expression and self-healing.

She weaves together passages from published and unpublished journals, from works of literature, psychology, and women's studies with her personal insights. A Voice of Her Own is a treasure chest of inspiration for every woman seeking deeper self-awareness and new outlets for creativity.

Download or read book A Space of Her Own written by Leela Gulati and published by SAGE. This book was released on 2005-05 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Several books have been written about the position of women in India’s patriarchal society. This collection of twelve narratives, however, focuses not so much on women’s subservient position vis-a-vis men, but on women’s relations with each other. With the authors locating their personal struggles within those of three generations of women in their families, these narratives span a period of over a 100 years, and intersect both the private and public domains. Each narrative in A Space of Her Own is a tale of how the author fought to establish her own personhood and create a sphere of autonomy where she is able to make decisions to nurture herself and those around her. It is stories such as these, the editors argue which, when repeated over generations, will inspire women to live with dignity and to create and defend lives for themselves, their families, and the women who follow them....

Book excerpt: He entered the hall, most of his enthusiasm for the evening evaporated, then felt his heart give a sudden lift when he spotted Janine and Monique with their heads together as they worked intently on their project. His greetings to the volunteers were cheerier than usual as he gradually worked his way down to Moniques table. What was happening to him, he wondered? It wasnt right that he should be feeling this way. Monique looked up when he reached their table. Was it his imagination, or did her eyes light up when she saw him? Monique and Janine greeted him smilingly. Have a chair, Father, said Janine, indicating one of the extra chairs. Ill go and get us all some coffee. What do you take in yours, Father? Just milk, please, Janine. Suddenly Father felt self-conscious, sitting alone with Monique. Then he chided himself that there was a whole room full of people there. Monique also seemed to be at a loss for words. They both looked up at the same time, and their glances locked. I didnt see your car in the parking lot, Monique, Father said, then could have kicked himself. Monique looked startled. You looked for my car, Father? she asked, softly, as she searched his face, not missing the pinkish tinge his words had evoked. Well, yours and everyone elses. I like to guess whos here, before I come in. I see, said Monique, nodding slowly as she smiled knowingly. Father, meet me for coffee tomorrow night, she suggested, rambunctiously. Monique, you know I cant do that, he replied with consternation.. Oh Father, for crying out loud, its only for a coffee. Youre not going to run off with me. Anyway, those are your stupid church rules, not mine. Father Diemert let out a deep sigh, just as Janine approached with the three coffees. Ill be at Rudys at 7:00 oclock. If youre not there, Ill understand, Fatherrather, Matthew, declared Monique, decisively. I hope you two are not arguing about religion again, said Janine, arriving at the table. How did you guess? said Monique, laughing to lighten the moment. Janine just rolled her eyes.

Download or read book A Locker Room of Her Own written by David C. Ogden and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2013-06-03 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Female athletes are too often perceived as interlopers in the historically male-dominated world of sports. Obstacles specific to women are of particular focus in A Locker Room of Her Own. Race, sexual orientation, and the similar qualities ancillary to gender bear special exploration in how they impact an athlete's story. Central to this volume is the contention that women in their role as inherent outsiders are placed in a unique position even more complicated than the usual experiences of inequality and discord associated with race and sports. The contributors explore and critique the notion that in order to be considered among the pantheon of athletic heroes one cannot deviate from the traditional demographic profile, that of the white male. These essays look specifically and critically at the nature of gender and sexuality within the contested nexus of race, reputation, and sport. The collection explores the reputations of iconic and pioneering sports figures and the cultural and social forces that helped to forge their unique and often problematic legacies. Women athletes discussed in this volume include Babe Didrikson Zaharias, the women of the AAGPBL, Billie Jean King, Venus and Serena Williams, Marion Jones, Chris Evert and Martina Navratilova, Sheryl Swoopes, Florence Griffith Joyner, Roberta Gibb and Kathrine Switzer, and Danica Patrick.
