Tennis legend and equal-rights activist Billie Jean will be hosting the latest episode of PBS’s Groundbreakers, a series that celebrates the remarkable achievements of female athletes in the US. The two-hour-long show pairs veterans with up-and-coming athletes, like track and field champion Jackie Joyner-Kersee and Grand Slam winner Naomi Osaka, for instance, and lets us in on their conversations about women’s longstanding struggles and incredible (albeit overlooked) feats in sports.

Where to watch Groundbreakers
