This exceedingly timely book looks at the history of black activist athletes and the important role of the black community in making sure fair play existed, not only in sports, but across U.S. society.
• Offers the first significant synthesis covering the black athlete and the Civil Rights Movement
• Provides a history of activist African American athletes, examining the central role the black athlete and sports played in shaping America's democracy from 1945 through the late 1960s
• Discusses the role the black press and the black community played in integrating sports
• Links stars like Jackie Robinson and Althea Gibson to athletes who are largely forgotten, like boxer Joe Dorsey who fought Louisiana's ban on integrated sports, and Maggie Hathaway who paved the way for integrated golf in Los Angeles
Louis Moore is associate professor of history at Grand Valley State University, where he teaches African American history, civil rights, sports, and U.S. history.
