Gregory J. Kaliss examines these events and others to guide readers through the unprecedented wave of protest that swept sports in the 1960s and 1970s. The little-known story of the University of Wyoming football players suspended for their activism highlights an analysis of protests by college athletes. The 1971 Muhammad Ali-Joe Frazier clash provides a high-profile example of the Black male athlete's effort to redefine Black masculinity. An in-depth look at the American Basketball Association reveals a league that put Black culture front and center with its style of play and shows how the ABA influenced the development of hip-hop. As Kaliss describes the breakthroughs achieved by these athletes, he also explores the barriers that remained--and in some cases remain today"--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Art, Music & Recreation 796.08996 Ka Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 796.08996 Kaliss Checked In Add Copy to MyList
