The contributors to this volume consider not only the racism
experienced by various ethnic minority athletes in Britain, but
also the way in which various racisms have been articulated in
South Africa, the Caribbean, Canada and the USA. They examine many
of the voluntarist racist cherished beliefs surrounding sport. The
topics discussed include the way in which cricket in the Caribbean
has stimulated nationalist and racial self-consciousness, whether
young Afro-Caribbean athletes are agents of racialized social
control in Britain, the contribution of sport to popular struggles
in South Africa, how young South Asian children experience sport in
Britain and how far native American women are accommodated within
sport in Canada.
