In 2021, Betty Baxter was inducted into the Volleyball BC Hall of Fame.   But as a lesbian athlete and coach, the journey to that recognition was far from smooth. Baxter competed in the 1976 Olympics in Montreal and helped found Canadian Women & Sport. She was the first woman coach of a national team, and was then fired from that job because of her sexual orientation. She went on to many new roles in advocacy, activism, education and politics, and was a key force in organizing the 1990 Vancouver Gay Games and cultural celebration. We speak with Betty Baxter.
