CURATOR: Cherie Louise Turner

WHY THIS THEME?: Only about four percent of mainstream sports media covers female athletes. There are so many great stories that aren't being told, so I'm here to share a few.

GET IN TOUCH: Twitter

PROMO: Female athletes receive a disturbingly small amount of mainstream media attention and respect, and it's even worse for athletes of color. Yet we know that representation matters and that movement is critical to women's and girls' mental, emotional, and physical health. Telling and championing stories about strong, ambitious, healthy women athletes of all communities, cultures, skin colors, and backgrounds is critical to empowering all women.

Join us to celebrate!
