The experiences of ethnic 'Other' females have - until recently -
been widely overlooked in the study of sport. There continues to be
a need to produce critical scholarship about ethnic 'Other' girls
and women in sport and physical culture, in order to represent
their complex, multifarious and dynamic lived realities. This
international collection of critical essays provides compelling
insight into the lived realities of ethnic 'Other' females in
sport. Throughout the book, contributors either draw on the
political consciousnesses of 'Other' feminisms, or privilege the
voices of ethnic 'Other' girls and women so as to broaden,
diversify and advance critical thinking pertaining to ethnic
'Other' females in sport and physical culture. The purpose of the
collection is both to produce knowledge and privilege otherwise
subjugated knowledges, which individually and collectively present
counter-narratives that better speak to the lived realities of
racially oppressed groups of women and girls. Race, Gender and
Sport: The Politics of Ethnic 'Other' Girls and Women is important
reading for all students and scholars with an interest in the
sociology of sport, gender studies, or race and ethnicity studies.
