This week Abigail Merritt & Elle Rochford interview University of Maryland sociology PhD student Katelyn Foltz. Foltz has been working with UD Professors Earl Smith and Angela Hattery and George Mason's Dr. Marissa Kiss on the Sports Violence Database. This first of its kind database aggregates court cases and news stories of gender-based violence in the world of sports. You can check out the database here: https://smithandhattery.com/gbv/ and read about their work in their Brookings Institute op-ed at https://www.brookings.edu/blog/how-we-rise/2023/04/04/ineffective-policies-for-gender-based-violence-in-sports-result-in-lack-of-accountability/
