Vivek Ramaswamy Interviews Riley Gaines About Title 9

In a recent interview, Vivek Ramaswamy spoke with Riley Gaines about Title IX and its implications for women in sports. Gaines, an athlete and advocate for women's rights, shed light on a troubling trend that she had personally experienced. She recounted an incident in which male athletes were given priority treatment at an awards ceremony, despite not earning the top spots. Gaines believed that this behavior was motivated by a desire to be seen as inclusive and non-discriminatory, but the organizers failed to recognize that their actions were in direct violation of Title IX, a federal civil rights law that prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex. Gaines argues that such behavior is not truly inclusive, but instead serves to exclude female athletes and undermine the very purpose of women's sports.
