Race and sports scholar Harry Edward was among the first to ask: "What have sports done for the African American athlete and vise-versa?" The answer: each has made and continues to make momentous contributions to the other. Edward's inquiry sparked various examinations of sport that revealed both the successes and an impediments experienced by many black athletes. This wide-ranging collection of new essays explores the inextricable ties between African Americans and sports culture. Contributors address such topics as the historical context of African American participation in major U.S. sports, social justice and responsibility, gender and identity, and media and art.
