SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
"In Race in Play, Carl E. James takes the reader on an edifying walk through the structural and institutional communities that support and sustain sports, while also examining the socially constructed definitions and boundaries of identifications. He draws links between race and racialization, sport, schooling, and the educational and career aspirations of youth."--Jacket.
