内容説明

DARWIN'S ATHLETES focuses on society's fixation with black athletic achievement.Hoberman argues that this obsession has come to play a troubling role in African American life and our country's race relations.Rich, flamboyant superstars lend credence to age-old prejudices, recycled "scientific" theories denigrating black intelligence, and stereotypes of black violence.This portrayal of black identity encourages a disdain for academic achievement already too widespread among black males.Darwin's Athletes is a powerful indictment of modern sport's racial spectacle.
