Riley Gaines – Fighting for Women, Faith, and Fairness in America | WTP Ep. 9

In this episode of We The People, Gates Garcia sits down with Riley Gaines—12-time All-American swimmer turned national advocate for women’s rights, faith, and fairness in sports. Riley opens up about the moment that changed everything: being forced to compete against and share a locker room with a biological male at the NCAA Women’s Championships. Instead of staying silent, she chose to speak out. Riley shares her journey from collegiate athlete to cultural leader, the backlash she’s faced, and how her Christian faith continues to guide her. She discusses the importance of truth, biological reality, and protecting the integrity of women’s spaces in sports and society. Beyond her activism, Riley talks about marriage, purpose, and the joy of living boldly. This is a conversation about courage, conviction, and standing up when it matters most. #RileyGaines #WeThePeople #WomensRights #Faith #Truth #Courage #SaveWomensSports #Freedom Follow We The People and Gates Garcia across Social Media: Twitter – https://x.com/GatesGarciaFL Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/gatesgarciafl/ YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@WeThePeopleShow Website – https://www.wethepeoplemedia.com 🎧 Subscribe to the Podcast: RSS Feed – https://wethepeoplemedia.podbean.com/ Apple Podcasts – https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/we-the-people/id1794018527 Amazon Music – https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/5a7b37f9-9bd0-4316-8855-da4dd2f3e9ea/we-the-people BoomPlay – https://www.boomplaymusic.com/podcasts/123190 iHeart Radio – https://www.iheart.com/podcast/1323-we-the-people-262185022/ Spotify – https://open.spotify.com/show/6OJKGIXs751PN9qFL1FcJl We The People with Gates Garcia is recorded at the We The People Media studios in Tampa, FL and produced by Gates Garcia.
