In the final episode of Our Copa, we get personal with Merritt about her experience on the front lines fighting for equal pay in the U.S. Women's National Soccer Team. She reflects on the clandestine meeting where the players gathered and decided to pursue legal action, and what the fight and subsequent victory mean for the sport moving forward.
Plus, the hosts are joined by special guest and pro-player Crystal Dunn to discuss advances made not only in compensation but in working conditions and protection for mothers, and together they reflect on the ripple effects we're seeing across the world in the wake of this monumental win.
Our Copa is hosted by Merritt Mathias, Musa Okwonga, and Julio Ricardo Varela Produced by Emma Foley and executive produced by Carrie Tolles and Clarke Sondermann of TCB PR with support from Working Families Power and Mijente Support Committee.

The religious and political tensions that defined life in Ireland in the latter 20th century came to a head not only on the nation's soccer fields but in their stadiums, and altered the careers of some of Ireland's most prominent players.

In 1986, on the heels of an economic crisis and an earthquake that severely disrupted Mexican infrastructure and civilian life, the country moved forward as hosts of the 13th FIFA World Cup, an event defined by the friction between celebration of a sport foundational to the Mexican identity and a period of intense regional strife.

Host Musa Okwonga is joined by friend and Al Jazeera journalist Justin Salhani to discuss building community and solidarity among refugee populations through the creation of soccer leagues. With Socrates and The Corinthian Democracy as inspiration, Justin looks to the field to create a microcosm of the political dreams he hopes to see realized more broadly.

In the early 1980's, under military dictatorship, the Brazilian soccer team led by footballer Socrates created a microcosm of democracy that valued the opinions of all players and team management equally. The movement would cement Brazilian soccer as a breeding ground for political experimentation, idealism, and action.

Welcome to Our Copa! From the 1934 World Cup under Mussolini's Italian rule to the Algerian Independence movement in the late 1950s, from the Corinthian democracy in 1980s Brazil to religious fracture on the pitches of Northern Ireland, from the 1986 Cup in Mexico to the historic fight for equal pay by the U.S. Women's Soccer team — We’ll traverse time and space to visit the fields where hope and joy punctured the tyranny of empire.
