The US women's national soccer team is higher ranked than the men—so why do they make less money? While sports represent our cultural values and tie in closely to our identities, it's not hard to see how sports from the college level to the Olympics are driven by one thing: money. After hearing from women's soccer fans, we talk with professor Jules Boykoff about the incredible history of protests at the Olympics, including the current games in Rio. Then, we call up author Jessica Luther to discuss the role money plays in how colleges often let athletes off the hook in rape cases. The band featured on this episode is Diaspoura |
