The Enduring Color Line in U.S. Athletics de Krystal Beamon

The Enduring Color Line in U.S. Athletics: Framing 21st Century Social Issues

Autor Krystal Beamon, Chris M. Messer
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 14 noi 2013
Sports are an integral part of American society. Millions of dollars are spent every year on professional, collegiate, and youth athletics, and participation in and viewing of these sports both alter and reflect how one perceives the world. Beamon and Messer deftly explore sports as a social construction, and more significantly, the large role race and ethnicity play in sports and consequently sports’ influence on modern race relations. This text is ideal for courses on Sport and Society as well as Race and Ethnicity.
