商品簡介
Racism and the Olympics studies international racial conflict in sports, focusing on the Olympics and racism against Black people, as well as the contextual elements that surrounded racial conflicts in the Olympics. For example, the Nazi anti-Semitism surrounding the 1936 German games is examined, as well as the Japanese imperialism that led to Japan refusing to host the Olympiads during the 1940s. The book also briefly discusses the issue of homophobia in Russia associated with their decision-making in relation to the Olympics. Annotation c2016 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
