LOS ANGELES - Female athletes from across all sports are drawing inspiration from one another as they fight for equal treatment, Olympic sprint champion Allyson Felix told Reuters this week.
Felix said the brave steps taken by U.S. gymnasts, who spoke out against a serial sexual abuser, and the U.S. women’s soccer team, who have sued their federation for equal pay, have helped give athletes like herself the courage to speak up.“When women speak out and speak their truth, change happens. It also encourages others to come forward.
The sportswear company also refused to guarantee that she would not be financially penalized if she was not at her best in the months around the birth, she wrote in The New York Times, echoing the experience of other Nike-sponsored women athletes.This week Felix announced that she had signed the first sponsorship deal with women’s sports apparel company Athleta, where she will take part in initiatives to empower women and girls and have a hand in product design.
