When Women Stood is an unapologetically new sport and social history that unveils the often-overlooked chronicle of women and their fight for equality. From early Amazons and suffragists to modern-day athletes and social influencers, this is an eye-opening history of women told through the always-influential world of sports.

    From the 1960s to the 1980s, American television ran the public service announcement, 'Do you know where your children are,' with a large 10 p.m. logo next to it.
