CHICAGO — The opening montage of Candace Parker’s Title IX documentary features clips of her playing career from Naperville (Ill.) Central to Tennessee to the Los Angeles Sparks to the Chicago Sky.
“That’s me. Candace Parker. Two-time NCAA champ. Two-time WNBA MVP. Two-time WNBA champ. Two-time AP Female Athlete of the Year,” Parker says. “But none of this could have happened 50 years ago.”
Through the lens of Parker’s rise, “Title IX: 37 Words That Changed America” tells the story of the evolution of women’s sports in the 50 years since Title IX was signed into law, with appearances from Billie Jean King, Lisa Leslie, Condoleezza Rice and many more.
