Darwin's Athletes: How Sport Has Damaged Black America Book
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.

Darwin's Athletes is a powerful indictment of modern sport's racial spectacle.Read More
