Kevin Dhaese ，

This is a five-star topic with a three-star telling from Mr。 Feinstein。 He has authored many good books， this not being one of his best， largely because the specific stories told are already known。 Nonetheless， it is a worthy read。 The real value will be if Feinstein's history and credibility allows him to reach an audience still denying we have not yet reached our American Ideal。 I am not sure anyone can span that gap。 I appreciate and salute his effort。 This is a five-star topic with a three-star telling from Mr。 Feinstein。 He has authored many good books， this not being one of his best， largely because the specific stories told are already known。 Nonetheless， it is a worthy read。 The real value will be if Feinstein's history and credibility allows him to reach an audience still denying we have not yet reached our American Ideal。 I am not sure anyone can span that gap。 I appreciate and salute his effort。 。。。more

John Feinstein uses the many connections he's developed over decades of sports reporting to interview people across a number of sports about how race issues are pervasive throughout sports。 It's a timely book that lays bare that things have not as progressed as much as people like to think。 John Feinstein uses the many connections he's developed over decades of sports reporting to interview people across a number of sports about how race issues are pervasive throughout sports。 It's a timely book that lays bare that things have not as progressed as much as people like to think。 。。。more

Timely and exhaustive。 A book that should be read by anyone who thinks that "Shut up and dribble。" is an appropriate response to the racism in the sporting world。 Timely and exhaustive。 A book that should be read by anyone who thinks that "Shut up and dribble。" is an appropriate response to the racism in the sporting world。 。。。more
