A Sporting Chance: Achievements of AfricanCanadian Athletes,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Over the years, Canadians have smugly asserted their countrys more tolerant culture in race relations. Yet as this story of AfricanCanadian participation in sports demonstrates, the record is far more troubling. In reality, Canadas record in matters of race was a disturbing blend of occasional good intentions and ugly practices. The study of the Black athletic experience in Canada is not only a revealing portrait into our past, but also one more demonstration of some timehonoured truths about human achievement and the necessity of the public will to provide open and fair forums for equal access to participation.Presented in a chronological sequence, individual sports are presented along with the leading athletes who brought grace and a determination to achieve. Included are George Dixon, Sam Langford, Reuben Mayes, Ray Lewis, Sam Richardson, Dr. Phil Edwards, Jackie Robinson, Harry Jerome, Earl Walls, Donovan Bailey, Sylvia Sweeney, Molly Killingbeck, Herb Carnegie, Jamaal Magliore, Perdita Felicien and Jarome Iginla, to name but a few of the fine athletes who form a part of Canadas sports heritage.'As Canadas foremost baseball historian, Bill Humber has chronicled another fascinating chapter from Canadas rich sports history. This is an excellent read entertaining, educational and expertly researched.' Brian McFarlane, Sports Family Ltd.
