Learn More About Allyson Felix
Allyson Felix is the most decorated track and field Olympian in history, but her impact extends far beyond the track. After speaking out when her sponsor sought to reduce her pay and declined to guarantee maternity protections, Felix helped bring greater attention to the challenges women face in sports.
Following a life-threatening complication during childbirth, Felix also became a leading advocate for Black maternal health. Her story reflects a commitment to challenging expectations, advocating for women and using her voice to create change. Join Felix and Wes Felix at Spelman for a screening and conversation about the experiences that shaped her journey and the legacy she continues to build. The screening begins promptly at noon on Wednesday, Nov. 11, in Sisters Chapel. Doors open at 11 a.m. Arrive early to secure your seat.
