Summary
What really happens on the front lines of change? For Kathryn, a former ESPN columnist and professional cyclist, advocating for gender equality wasn't even on her radar in 2006. She was on a journalism assignment, trying to get to the Beijing Summer Olympics. By 2016, everything changed. Global petitions, documentary filmmaking, pressure groups, secret meetings, bullying managers, brain injuries, devastating depression, healing victories… the decade-long span of one woman's foray into activism was rife with difficulties. But also a journey of hope, passion, courage and triumph.
With unabashed honesty, irreverence, history, humor and authenticity, Kathryn’s memoir takes us behind the scenes of what really happens when we stand up and fight for what we believe. And why we must. Proving that we all have the power to create change, STAND delivers a timely and poignant message to listeners from all walks of life: The journey toward equal opportunity is always worth the struggle.
Also included is bonus content, unique to the audio edition.
